EYBOARD DESCRIPTION
ON-OFF key
The instrument is turned on and off using the ON/OFF key. The turning on starts a self test that
checks the instrument status.
In the following window you will enter the password identifying the user: press ENTER to access
as a non registered user (Anonymous). To access as a registered user (Administrator, User1, User2
or User3), enter the user code assigned by the administrator using the arrows and confirm with
ENTER (please see the details concerning user management on page 10).
Finally, the instrument is set for normal measurement.

Automatic turning off
The instrument has an
AutoPowerOff
function that automatically turns the instrument off after about
8 minutes if no key is pressed during the intervening time. The
AutoPowerOff
function can be
disabled by holding the
key pressed down when turning the instrument on: the battery symbol
will blink to remind the user that the instrument can only be turned off by pressing the <ON/OFF>
key.
The automatic turning off function is disabled when external power is used. On the other
hand, it cannot be disabled when the batteries are discharged.
PRINT key
It sends the displayed data to the serial RS232C output or USB output. The
ID
is increased after
each
new
measurement (MEAS key). The ID is not increased by repeatedly pressing the PRINT
key: in this way it is possible to print multiple labels with the same ID.
See the details on page 22.
Before starting the communication via the RS232C serial port, set the baud rate. To do so, select
“System Parameters >> Communication Options >> Baud Rate” and select the maximum value
equal to 115200 baud by using the arrows
and
. Confirm by pressing ENTER.
The DeltaLog11 software for PC will automatically set the same baud rate value as the instrument
one during connection.
If you are using a different program than DeltaLog11, be sure the baud
rate is the same for both the instrument and the PC: the communication will only work in this
way.
If the instrument is connected directly to a serial printer, set the recommended baud rate for the
printer.
The direct connection between instrument and printer via a USB connector is not allowed.
