When the Monitor is first switched on, all the front-panel LEDs and keys light up
momentarily. The meaning of the front-panel LEDs under normal operation is given in the
following table together with a brief summary of possible defect conditions:
• With the Instrument on, observe the following:
• The backlight tube lights the LCD display.
• No error messages are displayed. Error messages indicate either software or hardware fault
has occurred. If error messages are displayed, refer to error codes later in this chapter.
• The brightness of the LCD display is adequate. If not, adjust it accordingly.
