5. 
BASIC OPERATING PROCEDURES (USING THE DISPLAY UNIT)
Both of four push button and magnet switches can 
be used for setting. The magnet switches can be 
used to set parameters without opening the case 
cover.
The magnet switches need operational magnets 
(optional code BM). These are also available as 
part number F9840PA.
Users can choose a language on indicator from 
English, Japanese, German, French, Italian, and 
Spanish.

WARNING
 
Be sure to set parameters as “Protect” on the

setting work.
Read Chapter 6 Menu P and Subsection 11.3.2, 
how to use the write protect function in detail.
CAUTION
When using this instrument for a long time in 
conditions of high temperature and humidity, the 
visibility of the display unit may deteriorate. In 
this case, it is necessary to replace the display 
unit.
CAUTION
Precautions for Push Button Switches
• Openthecoverwhenoperatingpushbutton
switches. Read Section 11.2 for details on 
opening the cover.
• Do not open the cover in wet weather or high 
humidity in order to prevent condensation. 
The push button switches cannot be used 
in these conditions as the cover would need 
to be opened. In this case, use magnet 
switches to set parameters.
• Do not touch the push button switches with 
wet or dirty hands.
NOTE
Precaution for Magnet Switches and 
Operational Bar-Magnet
(1)  A bar-magnet with its case is attached 
withanAXRwhentheoptionalcodeBMis
chosen at the same time. This bar-magnet 
with its case is also available as part number 
F9840PA. 
(2)  The bar-magnet should be used for the 
parametersettingofAXRfromitsoutside
glass window only.
(3)  The switch operation should be done under 
the condition of closing the cover case 
outside its glass window.
(4)  Do not hit the bar-magnet to the glass of the 
cover so strongly.
(5)  If dirt, dust or other substances surfaces on 
the display panel glass, wipe them clean with 
a soft dry cloth.
(6)  Do not make a condition of closing the

(7)  Do not bring the bar-magnet near equipment 
susceptibletomagneticeldsuchas
magnetic cards, medical equipment, etc.
(8)  Keep the bar-magnet in the case because of 
the powerful magnetic force.
