Part IV: System Functions
30-2.2 Display & Battery
This page contains power-saving settings to extend battery life on a charge. It also displays the current
internal temperature of the instrument in degrees centigrade/Celsius and Fahrenheit.
Auto Power Off
If the device remains on for a certain amount of time (3, 5, 10, or 30min) without input, it will automatically
shut down to preserve power. Highlight this setting with the rotary knob and use the arrow keys to select a
time period, or set to
DISABLE
to disable automatic shutdown.
Backlight Off
If the device remains on for a certain amount of time (3, 5, 10, or 30min) without input, it will automatically
dim the backlit screen to preserve power. Highlight this setting with the rotary knob and use the arrow keys to
select a time period, or set to
DISABLE
to disable auto-dim.
30-2.3 Date & Time
This page allows you to set the instrument’s internal clock. Highlight each entry field with the rotary knob, and
use the arrow keys or data keypad to set the current year, month, day, hour, minute, and second.
The topmost field allows you to change the date display format:
•
Y/M/D
(ex.: 2016 Mar 31)
•
D/M/Y
(ex. 31 Mar 2016)
•
or
M/D/Y
(ex. Mar 31 2016)
30-2.4 Language
On this page, you may set the system language. Once set, all system text, instructions, and data will appear in
the selected language. English, French, German, Korean, and Chinese (simplified) are currently supported.
30-2.5 User Management
This page allows you to view information and make changes to the user account you are currently logged
into. (See Section 2-2.) It displays your user ID number, user name, and listed company. The UserID list shows a
persistent ID number for each user, in cases when multiple users share the same instrument.
Toggle the
Multi-User
feature to enable or disable multiple user profiles. If disabled, the instrument will treat
every operator as the same user, and will bypass the multi-user startup menu and go directly to the main
measurement menu. You must restart the system for changes to take effect.
After making changes, press
Save
to record the current user configuration.
