4.5 “SET UP” = General settings
This mode makes it possible to adapt the general settings on the C.A 6115N to the specific needs of the
operator, including: setting standby mode on/off, the buzzer, date, time, lead compensation, RS232
baud rate …
This makes it possible to either set up the C.A 6115N either as an extremely easy to use instrument that
displays just the main measurement results/parameters, or as a more comprehensive instrument that
besides displaying the main measurement results/parameters, also gives a number of useful secondary
results/parameters depending on the function selected.
Below is the list of general settings that are possible:
Pd Standby mode on/off Set to off - prevents the standby mode from coming into effect
(saves batteries) when not used for several minutes
bu Buzzer on/off Set to off - prevents monitoring of limits with audible beep
dAt Date 06 05 96 Set date using “SELECT” and “CHANGE”
tim Time AM 12:31 Set time using “SELECT” and “CHANGE”
R
∆
Compensation R: on/off Set to off - removes lead compensation
bd Baud rate: 300...9.6 K.. - - - RS232 interface speed
When “- - -” is displayed, this signifies serial-to-parallel mode
(to be chosen for A4 parallel printer
with optional adapter. See § 7)
When “ -P-” is displayed, this means the remote control
probe can be used (see § 4.7).
prt Print format: doc/prt doc : “Documentation”-type printing
prt : “Protocol”-type printing
The rest of the SET-UP menu below lists the secondary parameters/results that can be shown or hid for
each function. The “x”’s indicate the functions where there is a parameter/result display “ON/OFF”
