Normal Display Mode and Inactivity Timeout 
Normal display mode appears on the output voltage and current 
displays when the configuration changes from the front panel have 
been completed or when the inactivity timeout occurs (default is 3 
seconds). Normal display mode shows the output voltage and 
current values. 
If a timeout occurs before the changes made to the value have been 
set, the changes will not be saved and you will have to re-enter the 
changes. The inactivity timeout is variable from 1 to 20 seconds 
and can only be changed using the SCPI command. 
The SCPI command (s) for these instructions are: 
[:]SYSTem[<channel>]:FPANel[:TIMeout] 
Important: Each user memory setting location stores the timeout so that 
beginning users and expert users are not required to use the same timeout
