Power Off
UTION DO NOT power off the Waveform Generator when either running a signal path compensation or when doing any of the adjustments described in the Adjustment Procedures section. To do so might result in the loss of internally stored adjustment constants.
Do not power off the instrument when doing operations that affect the data stored in the memory. Wait for the instrument to finish the operation when doing adjustments, saving waveforms, or saving setups.
Improper power off, toggling the instrument to STBY improperly, or unexpected loss of power to the AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform Generator can result in calibration data corruptions on the hard disk.
