2-1	INTRODUCTION	This chapter provides information for the initial inspection and preparation
		for use of the ML2430A Series Power Meter. Shipping and storage infor-
		mation is also included.
2-2	INITIAL	Inspect the shipping container for damage. If the container or cushioning
	INSPECTION	material is damaged, retain until the contents of the shipment have been
		checked against the packing list and the instrument has been checked for
		mechanical and electrical operation.
		If the power meter is damaged mechanically, notify your local sales repre-
		sentative or Anritsu Customer Service Center. If either the shipping con-
		tainer is damaged or the cushioning material shows signs of stress, notify
		the carrier as well as Anritsu. Retain the shipping materials for the car-
		rier's inspection.
2-3	SENSOR	The sensors are enclosed in a polycarbonate case to help prevent dam-
	HANDLING	age. The sensor connectors, however, are exposed and are a critical part
		of the microwave instrument. Refer to the MA24XXA Series Power Sensor
		manual (10585-00004) for detailed information on proper connector care.
2-4	POWER	The ML2430A Series Power Meter can be operated from either AC line
	REQUIREMENTS	power, external DC power, or from the optional internal battery. The
		ML2430A Series Power Meter is intended as an Installation (Overvoltage)
		Category II, Insulation Category I device.
		At power-on, the power meter will perform a brief power-on self test
		(POST). If a POST error occurs, information and available options will be
		displayed on the screen (See Chapter 4, page 4-3). If the POST is suc-
		cessful, the instrument will load the last used configuration, unless Secure
		mode has been selected (see Chapter 4, page 4-34,or Chapter 6, page
		6-68).
		AC Line Power	The ML2430A Series Power Meter can operate on AC
			input power of 85-264V, 50-440 Hz, 40 VA maximum.
			The Power Meter automatically configures itself for the
			voltage applied. The AC line input is protected by an
			internal fuse.
		DC Power	The ML2430A Series Power Meter can also operate
			from a nominal external 12-24 VDC input in the ab-
			sence of AC line power. DC line power is protected by
