5.5 PROGRAMMING
Throughout this manual push-buttons are shown in
italics e.g.
P or Up push-button, and legends
displayed by the instrument are shown within
inverted commas e.g. 'SEt' and ' dISPLAY'.
5.5.1 Accessing programme functions
Access to the programme menu is obtained by
operating the
P and E push-buttons
simultaneously. If the BA368C is not protected by
a security code the first parameter ‘Function’ will
be displayed. If a security code other than the
default code 0000 has already been entered, the
instrument will display 'COdE'. Press
P to clear
this prompt and enter the security code for the
instrument using the
Up or Down push-button to
adjust each digit, and the P push-button to move
control to the next digit. If the correct code has
been entered pressing
E will cause the first
parameter ‘Function’ 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.
Once within the main programme menu the
required parameter can be reached by scrolling
through the menu using the
Up and Down push-
buttons as shown by the clock programme
structure shown in Fig 5.3.
This section summarises all the clock
programmable parameters including those for the
optional control outputs. When read in conjunction
with Fig 5.3 it provides a quick aid for programming
the instrument. If more detail is required, each
section contains a reference to a full description of
the function.
