SECTION 3 INSTRUMENT OPERATION
3.1 Menus
The instrument has two important menus which allow access to
different options. The menus are:
• Setup Menu
• Recall Menu
Once the user has selected the desired menu, the arrow icons
illuminate on the main display screen. The arrows indicate that
additional options are available in this menu. Press the up
or
down
ARROW key (whichever arrow is illuminated) to scroll until
the desired option is displayed. A press of the
ENTER key at this
time selects the displayed option.
When choosing options from menus, the up or down
ARROW
keys,
ENTER, and EXIT keys help navigate between menus and
within menu options. Use the
ENTER key to select a menu option.
Press
ENTER again to accept a new setting. Pressing the EXIT key
leaves a menu or leaves the displayed item unchanged.
3.1.1 Setup Menu
Enter the Setup Menu from the Main Menu by pressing the
SETUP key.
Refer to the arrow icons on the main display for an indication of
which key (up
ARROW or down ARROW) to press on the keypad -
the direction of the illuminated icon on the main display indicates
the available scrolling direction. The up and down
ARROW
(scroll) keys move from one menu option to the next.
Example: when the down arrow icon is illuminated on the display
screen, the user only has the option to press the down
ARROW key
to move from one option to the next. Once the user scrolls down,
the down arrow icon changes to a dual-direction arrow icon (up
and down arrows) until the user reaches the last menu option
available in that menu.
The following instrument operating features are available in the
Setup menu
• BLANK - Used to compensate for color contributed by the
