CHAPTER 4: USING THE METER

4.4Operating Mode

4.4.1 Description

Operating mode is the EPM 6000 meter’s default mode. If scrolling is enabled, the meter automatically scrolls through these parameter screens after startup. The screen changes every 7 seconds. Scrolling is suspended for 3 minutes after any button is pressed.

Push the DOWN button to scroll all the parameters in operating mode. The active parameter has the indicator light next to it on the right face of the meter. Push the RIGHT button to view additional displays for that parameter. A table of the possible displays in the operating mode is below. Refer to Operating Mode Screens on page 6–3 for a detailed navigation map of the operating mode.
