5. Enable or disable auto power off. Once the format of decimal point divisions has been
set and stored, the display will show the word “yES’ over the term “PoFF”. Press the
or button until the desired automatic power off management scheme (“yES” for
enable; “no” for disable) is displayed. Press the REC/ENTER button to store the selection.
If enabled, the power off function shuts off the HHSL402SD after a period of inactivity of
ten minutes.
6. Enable or disable the beeper. Once the auto power off function has been enabled or
disabled, the display will show the word “yES” over the
word “bEEP”. Press the
button until the desired setting (“yES” or “no”) is displayed, and then press the
REC/ENTER button to store the selection as the default.
7. Set the datalogging sampling time. Once the beeper has been enabled or disabled, the
display will show a value above the letters “SP-t”. Press the
or button to decrease
or increase the value until the desired sampling time appears above “SP-t”. The options
are 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 30, 60, 120, 300, 600, 1800 and 3600 seconds (0 seconds to 1 hour).
8. Format the SD card. Once the sampling time has been set and stored, the term “Sd-F”
will appear in the lower half of the display. Press the REC/ENTER button.
Pressing the REC/ENTER button causes the word “
no” or “yES” to appear over the term
“
Sd-F”. Press the
button to make a selection. Choose “yES” whenever a new SD card is
being used, or when a used card is being repurposed (from use with another SD card
instrument or a camera, for example) and all data on it is to be erased. Choose “no” to
preserve any data on a card previously used with this instrument.
If you choose “yES”, after you press the REC/ENTER button the instrument will prompt you
to confirm
that decision by displaying the term “Ent” below “yES” and sounding three
b
eeps. To confirm that you want to begin the erasure/formatting procedure, press the
REC/ENTER button. “Ent” will then flash several times and the instrument will sound
another three beeps to confirm that the SD card has been erased and formatted.
Once the SD card has been formatted (or not), the display will then either return
to the first
of th
e six steps in the setup sequence—setting the current date and time—or show the
term “ESC”. If “ESC” appears, press the POWER/ESC button to exit the setup procedure and
enter normal operating mode.
