Sleep Function
NOTE
The instrument consumes small amount of current in the Sleep
(power-down) mode. Make sure to turn the Function Selector
switch to the "OFF" position, when the instrument is not in use.
This is a function to prevent the instrument from being left powered
on in order to conserve battery life. This function causes the
instrument to switch to the Sleep (powered-down) mode about 10
minutes after the last switch or button operation.
To exit the Sleep mode, press any button or turn the Function
Selector switch back to "OFF", then to any other position.
[How to disable the Sleep function]
Powering the instrument on with the Data Hold button pressed
disables the Sleep function. "P.OFF" is shown on the display for
about 3 seconds to indicate this.
To enable the Sleep function, turn the Function Selector switch
back to "OFF", then to any other position.
NOTE
◇The Sleep function is disabled while the output plug is inserted
into the OUTPUT terminal. When the output plug is disconnected
from the terminal, the Sleep function is enabled in about 10
minutes.
