8.6.4 Auto-Off
The instrument automatically switches off after 10
minutes when not used if the Auto-off function is on.
This helps to save the batteries and hence the
environment. Key confirmations, serial communica-
tion, measuring programs with a measuring rate of
less than one minute which have been already start-
ed keep the instrument “awake” and it is not switched
off automatically.
Note: Activated measuring programs (P1 – P3) which
take the measured values as a basis for the starting
criteria are only executed if the intermediate rate and
the measuring rate are set at longer than 1 minute.
For rates less than 60 seconds the instrument should
stay switched on in order to start the measuring pro-
gram. The Auto-Off should then be deactivated.
Make sure to switch off the instrument when you
are not using it and the auto-off function is off.
8.6.5 Intermediate rate
Indicate the time intervals within which the measuring
instrument has to check the conditions for a meas-
urement (program start at overrun or underrun of
measured value or gradient). If you do not activate
this input the instrument only checks the conditions if
switched on or if the running program is at the set
measuring rate. This input is valid for all programs
and alarms.
Note: Intermediate rates in the seconds range are
not possible if the measuring rate is > 50 min i.e. the
minimum intermediate rate is 1 min.
