The Anritsu Spectrum Master is capable of approximately three hours of continuous operation from a fully charged, field-replaceable battery (refer to
Battery Replacement). The Spectrum Master can also be operated from a 12 VDC source (which will simultaneously charge the battery). This can be achieved with either the Anritsu AC-DC Adapter or the Automotive Power Adapter. Both items are included as standard accessories with the Spectrum Master. Refer to the instrument Technical Data Sheet.
To turn on the Spectrum Master, press the green
On/Off button on the front panel (see
Figure: Spectrum Master Front Panel and Interface Screen).
The Spectrum Master takes approximately 60 seconds to complete power-up and to load the application software. At the completion of this process, the instrument is ready for use.
