main menu, press the SEQ/MENU button.
You can choose between the following menu head-
ings.

Setup
Here you set general parameters and options for:
Measure Time
Here you can choose between the measure times 1,
2, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 seconds. At 1 s, the time
resolution is 0.1 ms and at 100 s, the resolution is 10
ms. You choose the unit for measure time in the TIME
BASE section.
Note If you change the measure time, the mea-
surements most recently taken are erased.
Language
Here you choose between English, German, French,
Spanish or Swedish. If you select another language
than English and want EGIL to “remember” this next
time you start the instrument you must save the set-
ting in memory “0”.
Auto Sequence
Here you choose whether or not you want EGIL to de-
tect the breaker position. You may select any breaker
operation independent of the breaker position.
Time Base
Here you choose the time unit for measuring. You
can choose from milliseconds, 50 Hz cycles (equals
periods) or 60 Hz cycles. 1 cy = 20 ms at 50 Hz and
16.67 ms at 60 Hz.

Travel Unit
Here you choose the travel unit. You can choose from
mm or inch (1 inch = 25.4 mm).
Option - End
Printouts
Here you set parameters for printouts. The maximum
length for a printout is 20 squares.
Auto Printouts
Here you choose whether or not you want a report
automatically printed out after every measurement.
If you not activate this function, you must press
the PRINT button after every measurement to get a
printed report.
Contents
Here you can choose whether or not you want all
pages printed out or just those pages containing
graphs.
Compress Time
Here you choose if you want to activate time scale
compression during the interval when something can
happen on the channels.
Suppress Bounces
Here you choose whether or not you want bounces
(10 ms) to be filtered when printing numeric values.
This setting does not apply to the graphic printout.
Note: All raw data is stored in EGIL’s memory. Only the
values that are printed are filtered. If the function is
activated, the system gives you the time for the first
contact connection at circuit closure and the time for
last contact separation at circuit disconnection. If the
function is not activated, all registered bounces are
printed.
Note All raw data are stored in EGIL’s memory. Only
the values that are printed are filtered. If the
function is activated, the system gives you the
time for the first contact touch at closure and
the time for last contact separation at open.
If the function is not activated, all registered
bounces are printed.
