5.8 Programming the instrument’s internal timer – Timer
The Timer position enables the user to
programme the internal real time clock to act
as a delayed start and stop timer. The
instrument can be switched on automatically
at the pre-selected programmed time and
perform the measurement with the same
settings used before the instrument was
switched off.
Modes of the timer function
The timer can be switched off (Off), switched
on only once (Single), or switched on many
times regularly (Multiple) with the period
between two consecutive measurements
(Repetition).
In case the timer function is active (Single or Multiple) and the instrument is switched on the “clock” icon
appears until finishing the programmed measurements.
Time of the measurement start
The Start Hour position determines the time
for the measurement to start. The required
hour and minute can be selected in a special
window, which is opened by means of the ◄
or ► push-buttons.
To set hours or minutes the user should enter the left or right field by pressing the ◄ or ► push button and then
select the proper value by means of the ▲ or ▼ push-buttons and finally to press <ENTER>.
Day of the measurement start
The Start Day position determines the date
for the measurement to start. The timer can
be programmed up to one month ahead and
during the date setting the current state of the
Real-Time Clock (RTC) is considered. The
required date can be selected in a special
window, which is opened by means of the ◄
or ► push-buttons.
To set date, the user should select its position by means of the ◄ or ► and ▲ or ▼ push button and then press
<ENTER>.
Period between two consecutive
measurements starts
The Repetition position is displayed when
the Multiple mode is selected. This
parameter can be programmed in the range
from 00:00 up to 96:00. The required date
can be selected in a special window, which
is opened by means of the ◄ or ► push-
buttons analogously to the Start Hour
position.
