Device and Measuring Parameters
6 Device and Measuring Parameters
The instrument’s “SET ” mode (menu mode) makes it possible to
set operating and measuring parameters, query information and
activate the interface.
➭ The menu mode is accessed by pressing the MEASURE | SETUP
key, assuming that the instrument is switched on and set to
“Measure” (measuring mode operation).
“1nFo ” appears at the display.
➭ The main menus, i.e. the “SET ” and “tEMP ” menus, as well as
the “SEnd ” and “StorE ” menus included with the METRAHIT
AM XTRA / O
UTDOOR / SECULIFEHITAM/MD, are accessed, and the
display is returned to “1nFo” by activating the
keys (in
any direction).
➭ After selecting the desired main menu, sub-menus are
accessed by pressing the FUNC | ENTER key.
➭ The desired parameter is selected by repeatedly pressing the
or key.
➭ In order to check or change a parameter, acknowledge it with
the FUNC | ENTER key.
➭ The
keys can be used to position the cursor at the entry
position.
The desired value is selected with the help of the
keys.
➭ Changes can only be accepted with the FUNC | ENTER key.
➭ You can return to the sub-menu without making any changes
by pushing the ZERO | ESC key, and to the main menu by press-
ing the same key once again etc.
➭ You can switch to the measuring mode from any menu level by
pressing the FUNC | ENTER key.
After repeatedly pressing the MEASURE | SETUP key (without first
turning the multimeter off), you can return to the last selected
menu or parameter from the measuring mode.
Example: Setting Time
1nFo
... set rAte ... t iME
10:24 (hh:mm)
Setting hours and minutes:
Advance to desired entry position.
Change the setting, the entry position blinks.
Press and hold the key
to change the setting rapidly.
The new time setting is activated after
