Default: Auto
B.LIGHT

the brightness is lowered automatically to conserve power and the backlight
will automatically turn off after 10 seconds of inactivity. To turn on again, press
the <POWER> key.

REM.FN
(Remote
Function)
K344, K35*
This item allows the indicator to be triggered from a remote input (see section
3.9.2 Remote Input). The remote input can be set to have:
- no function (i.e. NONE) or
- it can be set to mimic one of the front five panel key functions (i.e.
where KEY1=ZERO, KEY2=TARE, KEY3=SELECT, KEY4=PRINT and
KEY5=FUNCTION).
The remote input can also be set to BLANK where, when the remote input is
pressed and held, the indicator displays dashes (i.e. - - - - - -) and the front five
key functions are disabled. When the remote input is released the indicator
display and front key functions return to normal.
For the REM.FN to have effect, the SERIAL:TYPE item must be set to
AUTO.
Options:
NONE: No function.
KEY1 to KEY 5: Mimic one of the front five function keys
BLANK: Display dashes (i.e. - - - - - -) and disable front key functions.
Default: NONE
REM.CHR
(Remote Input
Transmit Idle
Character)
K344, K35*
The remote input transmit idle character specifies the character to be
transmitted whilst the serial transmitter is idle, regardless of the state of the
DTR line. This character is only transmitted when a remote function
(SPEC:REM.FN) is enabled, and serial port type (SERIAL:TYPE) is set to
PRINT or AUTO.PR. This function allows the remote input to function even
when a printer is connected. This character must be chosen so it is ignored by
the printer. Typically, the ENQ (ASCII 05) character is suitable.
Range 000 to 255
Default: 005
BAT.VLT
(Battery
Voltage)
Default: 4.8V
A low battery annunciator will be displayed at 10% above low battery level.
The indicator will assume it is on battery power when its input voltage is less
