Operation

Auto-Off Selection

The Auto-off parameters control when the Product automatically turns off after inactivity on the keypad.

KIncrease the auto-off setting and the primary data field from "OFF" to 1 minute and stopping at 20 minutes.

LDecrease the auto-off setting and the primary data field from 1 minute to "OFF" and stopping at "OFF".

CExit back to menu item.

Battery Life

Initially, the primary data field shows the percentage of remaining battery life. This display can be toggled to show the battery voltage and is constantly updated to show current battery capacity.

Push C to toggle between the two data displays.

Operating Temperature

This selection shows the operating temperature of the internal electronics in °C or °F.

KChange the unit °C or °F. L Change the unit °C or °F. C Exit back to menu item.

Note

An “Overtemp” warning is shown if the internal electronics temperature is more than 50 °C (122 °F).

Damping

The Damping function is a running average of readings used to filter "noisy" temperature sources. The selections are OFF, 2, 5, or 10 sample average.

KChange the damp setting to the subsequent item in the list, cycling from the last to the first.

LChange the damp setting to the previous item in the list, cycling from the first to the last.

CExit back to menu item.

Sampling Rate

The sampling rate calculates how often the Product samples data. The settings are 0.5, 1.0, or 2.0, shown in samples per second.

KChange the rate setting to the subsequent item in the list, cycling from the last to the first.

LChange the rate setting to the previous item in the list, cycling from the first to the last.

CExit back to menu item.
