The Menu key is used to access menus.
The Digimet utilizes "pop-up" menus which
are easily accessed with the Menu key.
Navigation
Navigation through the Digimet menus and
functions is illustrated in Figure A page 14.
Display Standards
The design of the display system follows
some basic standards in order to provide a
consistent user interface.
The top line will always display a title in
capital letters, indicating the purpose of the
current screen. This will either be the name
of a menu or the name of a measurement
Function. This title line does not scroll.
Hold Indicator: For all measurement
Function displays, the top right two character
spaces are designated for indicating that the
unit is in Hold mode. Hold mode is signified
by the presence of a single, blinking
character "H". Sampling or real-time mode
is indicated by the absence of the character
"H".
Recall Indicator: The same two character
spaces (top right) are reserved to indicate
the number of a recalled set of
measurements. The recall function is
described in section titled Store/Recall.
Battery Low Indication
A low battery, as detected by system
circuitry, will be indicated on the display by a
blinking "B" in the display status area (upper
right corner).
The battery low indication (blinking "B") on
the display means the batteries will soon
MENU & DISPLAY SYSTEM
The menu system is navigated via the
front panel keys. The basic menu/function
structure is depicted in Figure A on Page
14. The structure and operation of the
menu/display are designed to provide
easy access to all of the Digimet 3000
features.
The use of the keys is as follows:
These keys are used to scroll the screen.
For menus, these keys are also used to
change the current selection. Once the
bottom of a screen has been reached (or
the last item selected), subsequent
pressing of the down arrow will have no
effect, that is, the screen will not loop back
to the top. Similarly, pressing the up arrow
will have no effect after the top of the
screen is reached. The arrow keys are
also used to change data in the Utility
Menu and to choose letters or characters
for labels. Both to be described in a later
section.
The Enter key is used to make a selection
or a change of some kind. This could be
changing to a new Function, changing a
system parameter, etc. But this key is
always associated with some effect on the
Digimet system.
