When my uScopeHXII is not in use, should I power it off or is is safe to leave it on all the time?
In most cases, it is perfectly safe to leave the uScopeHXII powered on all the time.
However, if your power source is subject to brownouts or is otherwise unstable (power switches on and off several times) you should leave the uScopeHXII powered off when not in use.
Note
If you are able to use power from a UPS or other filtered, battery-backed power source, you may safely leave the uScopeHXII powered on full-time.
