Using and keys you can move cursor leftwards (rightwards). To process the next digit we push
now key and get:
Input Values:
Val.[1/s]:0200.00
Nr. of MP: 010
Time[s]:0100
Now we can process the next digit. In order to insert here “9” it’s advisable to decrement once current “0”, rather than to increment it nine times.
So, we push key and get:
Input Values:
Val.[1/s]:0290.00
Nr. of MP: 010
Time[s]:0100
Note: In the case, you push and hold one of the keys or the cursor-underlined digit will first increment or decrement for +/- 1 only. However, after short period of time, the digit is automatically changed. This corresponds to the Repeat Function of the computer keyboard. In our example you
could also push and hold key until “9” will be displayed.
Now, when the desired number is displayed we can enter it by pressing OK key. In our example cursor now jumps to the first digit of the next value of user input (here Number of Measpoints).
Input Values:
Val.[1/s]:0290.00
Nr. of MP: 010
Time[s]:0100
Alphanumeric inputs
(= text with or without numeric digits) are identical to digit inputs. However, in this case, currently selected digit could not only be changed from “0” to “9”, but also to “A” to “Z” and to blank symbol “ “.
Selectable values for alphanumeric input digit in order of increase:
“ ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890”
If for example, your current digit is “B” and you want to input “7”, you have to hold key until desired “7” will appear at the display.
Alphanumeric inputs are requested for example to give a program, measuring system or measurement a name.
