abem Terrameter LS - Understanding the Start View

ABEM Terrameter LS
13
The four Menu Items are:
Projects (3.6 Data Concepts)
Settings (5.2.2 Data Acquisition Settings)
Measure (6.9 Performing Data Acquisition)
Instrument (4 The Instrument)
Each Sub Item corresponds to a specific Tab on the Screen (chapter 3.1 explains these
concepts). Each Tab represents a specific View of information. It’s a one-to-one match
between the three concepts:
- Sub Item is a part of the Navigation Menu and it matches a specific Tab/View
Screen
- Tab is a part of the Screen layout; it is a navigation help for the user
- View is a part of the Screen layout; it shows the requested information
There are three different ways to change the current View:
• Stepping between Sub Items
― Press <Browse> to step forward
― Press <Shift> + <Browse> to step backwards
• Make a direct change to the “Measure/Progress” View
― Press <Play-Stop>
• Using the Navigation Menu
― Press <Menu> to bring up the Navigation Menu
― Press <Up> and/or <Down> to step up and down in the Navigation Menu
― Press <Right> to open a closed Menu Item and show its Sub Items
― Press <Ok> to show the View of the highlight
If a Menu Item instead of a Sub Item is highlighted then the change will be to the latest used View of
that Menu Item
Note! The only way to change the View from one Menu Item to
any other Menu Item is via the Navigation Menu
3.3.1 The Start View
When starting the Terrameter LS the “Projects/Welcome” View (Figure 10) will
appear. Here the serial number of the instrument, the number of measuring channels,
the transmitter power and the software version are displayed. Furthermore the name of
the most recent measurement activity is displayed at the top right part of the Screen.
