The calculation of the display-information influences the power
consumption significantly. When the application does not require a fast
display update, it is
strongly advised
to select a slow refresh rate.
Please understand that NO information will be lost; every pulse will be
counted and the output signal will be generated in the normal way.
The following can be selected:
Fast - 1 sec - 3 sec - 15 sec - 30 sec - off.
Example battery life-time:
life-time with a coil pick-up, 1kHz. pulses and FAST update: about 2 years.
life-time with a coil pick-up, 1kHz. pulses and 1 sec update: about 5 years.
Note:
after a button has been pressed by the operator - the display
refresh rate will always switch to FAST for 30 seconds. When "OFF" is
selected, the display will be switched off after 30 seconds and will be
switched on as soon as a button has been pressed.

The unit has two modes: operational or shelf.
After "shelf" has been selected, the unit can be stored for several years; it
will not process the sensor signal; the display is switched off but all
settings and totals are stored. In this mode, power consumption is
extremely low.
To wake up the unit again, press the SELECT-key twice.
