10.5 Entering a start delay
If a period of delay is required between pressing
the START key and actually initiating measure-
ment, a period of time can be entered by which
the start of measurement can be put back. A
start delay is most useful when performing a
dynamic measurement (e.g. of a shaft) and the
measurement is to be started automatically via a
switching contact in the measuring device. The
startup of the shaft causes oscillation in the mea-
suring instrument that can influence the mea-
suring result. During the delay period, which is
indicated by “WAIT”, the oscillation subsides and
ceases to affect the measuring result.
1. Press the MENU key. The catalog of func-
tions and parameters item “FEATURE (1)” is
displayed.
2. Use the DATA and MASTER keys to select
the setting “PROCESS (3)”.
3. Press the MENU key. “MEASURE (3.1)” is dis-
played.
4. Press MENU again “MEAS.MOD (3.1.1)” is
displayed.
5. Use the DATA and MASTER keys to select
the setting “DELAY (3.1.4)”.
6. Press the MENU key. “DELAY” is displayed
with a numerical value underneath, the first
digit of which flashes.
7. Enter the duration of the start delay period
in seconds (see section “Changing numerical
values for parameter settings” in Chapter 0).
8. Press START once the delay period has been
entered. This terminates the process and the
set delay period flashes.
9. Press START again to adopt the flashing de-
lay period. The display then returns to the
catalog of functions and parameters item
“DELAY (3.1.4)”.
10. If no further settings are to be made in the
catalog of functions and parameters, press
the START key. The standard display ele-
ments appear.
If further settings are necessary, navigate
to the appropriate point of the catalog of
functions and parameters using the ESC,
MASTER, DATA and MENU keys and carry
out the settings as required.
