4-10 824 Reference Manual 11/8/00
The Data Files check menu includes the following:
Selecting and Modifying Instrument Definitions (IDs)
As explained in Chapter 2, “Overview”, the way to prepare
the System 824 for a measurement is to select an existing
Setup or Instrument Definition (ID) from the list which
appears on the display after pressing the Setup Key
S
and
either use it as-is or modify it to suit the requirements of the
measurement to be performed. In this section, we will
explain in general how an ID is modified and stored using
the Setup Menu of the System 824. More detailed descrip-
tions for specific Instrument Types (e.g. ISM, LOG, or SSA)
will be provided in later chapters. When a PC is available,
the 824 Utility software is a very powerful tool for creating
and storing new IDs and uploading them to the System 824
for use.
