4338B

To Set P

ower LINE Frequency

1. Connect the power cable to the power cord receptacle on the rear panel.

2. Push the LINE switch in. The 4338B will emit a beep when it turns ON, and perform

the self test. (If any message is displayed, see \Error Messages" back of

4338B Operation

Manual

.) The 4338B will be ready for operation after amessage like the following is

displayed.

3. Press .The following message is displayed.

4. Press until \

Line

"blinks

,and press .

Ablinking item means that it is currently selected.

5. If the setting does not match the power LINE frequency

,press to toggle the setting

between \

50 Hz

"and \

60 Hz

", then press .

6. Press until

Exit

blinks

,andpress .

Note

The power line frequency setting is stored and is not changed after reset or

power-o. Once you set it, you do not need to set the line frequency again as

long as the same power line frequency is being used.
