Audio Base Frequency

This sets the lowest audio base frequency tone in Measuring and Locating Mode. 

Set Clock 

Real time set as hh:mm:ss. Hours and minutes can be adjusted. Seconds will 
automatically be set to 00 when hours and minutes have been set. Clock runs even 
when detector is disconnected from the power supply.

Set Date

Real time clock date set as YY-MM-DD. Clock runs even when detector is 
disconnected from the power supply.

Data Output*

The Sensistor ISH2000 is equipped with a serial (RS232) printer port for data output. 
See “Printer port” on page 39.
