AIM 2 Operation Manual
Changing the Automatic Timer Settings
1. You can change the automatic timer settings for your AIM, including:
• Backlight Timer – If no buttons have been pressed on the AIM after the
specified time limit, the backlight on the display turns off.
The backlight automatically turns back on when you press any button on the
meter.
• Standby Timer – If no buttons on the AIM have been pressed after the specified
time limit, the meter automatically enters a power-saving mode called Standby.
The AIM automatically exits Standby mode when you press and hold the POWER
button until the backlight turns on.
• Shutdown Timer – If no buttons on the AIM have been pressed after the
specified time limit, the meter automatically turns off.
The meter can be turned back on by pressing and holding the POWER button
until the backlight turns on.
The AIM’s automatic timer settings are designed to help extend the battery charge.
You can customize the automatic timer settings. However, extending the time period longer
than the default setting decreases the time that the battery charge lasts.
