User Manual
Use the cursor keys to select the Application
field, and use the cursor keys to select None or
BZ7126. None means that the Auto Start is not active (if
previously set, the set-up parameters will be deleted if
you press Ok). If the Auto Start is already activated by
another application module (for example “BZ 7124”), the
number of this application module is also among the
choices. The display will appear similar to Fig. 4.3.
3. Set up the Date, Time and Use Setup no. fields as
required. The date and time can be set to one month
ahead.
4. Press Ok to activate the Auto Start.
When switching Mediator off, the following message is dis-
played:
Notes: An Auto Start only takes effect if Mediator is switched
off at the time the Auto Start is supposed to run. If Mediator
is already switched on, the Auto Start is cancelled.
If the Auto Start uses a set-up that starts a measurement
sequence, the instrument switches off when the sequence is
completed, otherwise it will simply keep measuring until
manually stopped.
Mediator switches on approximately 30 s before the set time
for an Auto Start. This allows Mediator to settle and start
measuring at exactly the set time.
