7.1.2
Sensor ID
The SENSOR ID function allows each sensor to be uniquely identified. This
may be password-protected to prevent it from being changed (see Section 7.5.4,
PASSWORD). The model number and serial number are displayed here but
cannot be edited. The sensor ID cannot be set for a channel without a sensor at-
tached. The sensor ID is stored in the sensor, not in the thermo-hygrometer.
Use the
lr
and ENTER buttons to select the sensor identification to change.
The
lr
buttons are used to move among character positions and the
buttons are used to change the character. Letters, numeric digits, space and un-
derscore can be used. Press the
Enter
button to save the setting. Press the
Exit
button to cancel any changes and exit to the menu.
7.1.3
Sensor Lock
The SENSOR LOCK function locks each sensor individually and prohibits the
user from switching sensors on the locked channels. This may be pass-
word-protected (see Section 7.5.4, PASSWORD). The sensor lock is set to ON
or OFF. After selecting ON, a screen is displayed showing the sensor channel
number, serial number, and the message ‘NOW LOCKED’. When the sensor
lock is ON, the thermo-hygrometer measures only on that channel using the
sensor that was attached when sensor lock was set ON. This can be used to pre-
vent inadvertent attachment of an uncalibrated sensor or one that is not in the
1620 the “DewK”
