Because of the large number of functions that are available on the NORTEC 600
instrument, the ALL SETTINGS menu contains multiple screens, or pages. The help
text at the bottom of the menu provides any additional navigation options that may
be needed.
2.3.2 Special Functions in the ALL SETTINGS Menu
Two special instrument functions are found only in the ALL SETTINGS menu:
EXT HORN (external horn) and AOUT PWR (analog out power). These functions
control the power or enable the output connectors on the back of the instrument
(see Figure 1-22 on page 43). To enable these functions, follow the instructions in
“Using the ALL SETTINGS Menu” on page 55.
If the NORTEC 600 instrument is being used in noisy conditions, an external horn can
be used. The horn connects to the I/O connector on the back of the instrument and
increases the audible alarm’s sound output to 70 dB (see Table 12 on page 342 for the
part specification).
2.4 Displaying Real-Time Readings
The real-time readings bar displays user-configurable readings (measurements) [see
Figure 2-5 on page 53]. It can display a maximum of two real-time readings from
among seven available choices. The real-time readings bar can be set to display one or
two readings, or it can be disabled.
The following readings can be displayed (see Figure 2-7 on page 57 through
Figure 2-11 on page 59):
• OFF
• APP — Maximum amplitude vector, peak-to-peak (P-P)
• VPP — Maximum vertical voltage, peak-to-peak
