6.2 Accessing configuration functions
Throughout this manual the instrument front panel
push buttons are shown as
&
,
*
,
(
and
)
and
legends displayed by the instrument are shown in a
seven segment font as displayed by the Counter
e.g.
FiLtEr
and
5CALE . r
.
Access to the configuration menu is obtained by
operating
the
(
and
)
push buttons
simultaneously. If the instrument is not protected by
a security code the first parameter
inPut-A
will be
displayed. If a security code other than the default
code
0000
has already been entered, the instrument
will display
CodE
. Press
(
to clear this prompt and
enter the security code for the instrument using the
&
or
*
push button to adjust the flashing digit, and
the
(
push button to transfer control to the next
digit. If the correct code has been entered pressing
)
will cause the first parameter
inPut-A
to be
displayed. If an incorrect code is entered, or a push
button is not operated within ten seconds, the
instrument will automatically return to the display
mode.
All configuration functions and prompts are shown on
the upper eight digit display.
Once within the configuration menu the required
function can be selected by scrolling through the
menu using the
&
and
*
push buttons. The
configuration menu is shown diagrammatically in
Fig 10.
When returning to the display mode following
reconfiguration, the BA364G Counter will display
dAtA
followed by
5AVE
while the new information is
stored in permanent memory.
If after accessing the configuration menu the interval
between operating any front panel push button
exceeds one minute, the BA364G will automatically
return to the display mode and any configuration
changes will not be stored in permanent memory.
When making changes to multiple configuration
functions, it is therefore sensible to occasionally
return to the display mode to save the changes that
have already been made.
