Saving Battery Life
When operated on the battery pack (no Power Adapter connected), the test tool conserves power by shuting itself down. If you have not pressed a key for at least 30 minutes, the test tool turns itself off automatically.
Note
If the Power Adapter is connected, there is no automatic power shutdown.
Although automatic power shutdown will not occur if TrendPlot is on, the backlight will dim. Recording will continue even if the battery pack is low, and retention of memories is not jeopardized.
Open the submenu.
Highlight AFTER 5 MIN.
Accept the new power down time.
