Explanation
Setting the Date/Time ON or OFF
When you set the mode to ON, the date and time will appear in the upper right corner of the
screen. And when making a hard copy of the screen (to the built-in printer or external
plotter) the date and time will be printed together with the waveform.
The current date and time are saved together with the waveform data or set-up data when
the data is saved to a floppy disk.
