Entering Alphanumeric Strings
An alphanumeric string is a series of numbers and letters; and also the Quotation Mark and the Pound
Sign symbol. You can also use a space. The meter uses these to identify a specific site setup or user-
modified table. The 1010N keypad does not provide letter keys. However, when you access a menu
cell that requires an alphanumeric string answer, the menu cell right-hand column provides an eight-
character entry field. Press the <Right Arrow> to access the field. This selects the first character
position. Note that the prompt changes to a question mark (?). With the cursor at the first character
position, use the <Up> or <Down Arrows> to scroll through a single-character list. For example, as
shown below, an <Up Arrow> at the first character position produces the letter: uppercase [A]. Press-
ing the <Right Arrow> moves the cursor to the second position.
Use the <Right and Left Arrows> to move through the character positions. If you wish touse numbers
in your string, you can type them directly from the keypad. After you finish selecting your string, press
<ENT> to register it.
1.7.3 THE METER TYPE MENU
This is the first list presented upon entering the Installation Menu. Select the type of meter required for
your application. The meter automatically conditions Installation Menu choices to suit the selected
meter type. The following paragraphs introduce the available meter types for dual channel systems.
NOTE: On Single Channel systems, you do not get a choice of meter types, sincethis requires
two independent measurement channels. However, you can operate the single chan-
nel with any optionally supplied measurement technology. Some four channel models
provide four-path and channel summing operation.
