Thermo
3.4 LCD Display Lock-on Facility
Any new display selected using the button remains visible for a set period of time,
(Thermo default time-out is 10 seconds), before returning to the default display.
Some display selections (marked * in Figure 3.4) can be ‘locked-on’, i.e. the return
to the default display is suspended. This facility is especially useful when
displaying dose-rate or when using the count down alarm. If a lock-on facility is
available it must be accepted quickly - when a colon (:) appears just before the
selected display times-out. The colon will only appear for approximately two
seconds. To accept the lock-on facility, press the button when the colon appears.
If the lock-on facility is not required, allow the selected display to time-out. To
deselect the lock-on facility press the button. The display will move on to the next
display selection but will thereafter revert to the default display after time-out.
The seconds count-down timer lock-on facility operates in a slightly different
manner to that described above. In this instance the lock-on facility is available
when the colon disappears
. This only occurs for the count-down timer display
and, again, is just before the display times out. To accept the lock-on facility,
press the button when the colon disappears. If the lock-on facility is not required,
allow the selected display to time-out.
