Configuring a Channel Off

Perform the procedure in Figure 2-10 to configure a channel for off (no measurement). In preparation, the instrument must be in the inactive mode (not scanning or monitoring) and the desired channel must be selected (see Figure 2-3). To exit at any time (changes not saved), press the Ckey. When a channel is OFF, it cannot be scanned or monitored. When a channel function is changed, alarm limits and scaling (Mx+B) for that channel are changed to their default conditions.

Setting Operating Conditions

After the channels are configured for the desired measurement parameter, set the following operating conditions to support the intended instrument function:

Setting the Scan Interval [Default - 0:00:00 (Continuous)] (Figure 2-11)

Setting the Measurement Rate [Default - Slow] (Figure 2-12)

Setting the Alarms [Default - Alarms off] (Figures 2-13)

Setting the Mx+B Scaling [Default - 1x+0 (no scaling)] (Figure 2-14) The instrument default settings for each of the above are shown.
