Status Indicator
, which appears
in the screen’s top left
corner,
lets you know the
status and charge level
of the analyzer’s 6 1.5 V batter-
ies. The X shown in the figure
shows that the EXP is powered
by the battery you’re testing to
conserve the internal batteries.
Press the two
Soft Keys
linked
to the bottom of the screen to
perform the functions displayed
above them. The functions
change depending on the menu
or test process. So it may be
helpful to think of the words
appearing above them as part
of the keys. Some of the more
common soft-key functions are
SELECT, BACK, and END.
When you first connect the EXP
to a battery it functions as a
voltmeter. The voltage read-
ing appears
above the left
soft key until you move to other
menus or functions.
In some cases, you can use
the
Alphanumeric Keypad
to
enter numerical test parameters
instead of scrolling to them with
the
ARROW
keys.
You’ll also use the Alphanu-
meric Keys to create and edit
customer coupons. The keypad
includes characters for punctua-
tion. To add a space, press the
RIGHT
and
LEFT ARROW
keys
simultaneously.
The
Selection Area
below the
Title Bar
contains items you se-
lect or into which you enter infor-
mation. The area also displays
instructions and warnings.
The
Directional Arrows
on the
display show you which
Arrow
Keys
to press to move to other
icons or screens. The Up
and Down Directional
Arrows, for example, let
you know to press the
UP
and
DOWN ARROW
keys to display the screens that
are above and below the current
screen.
The Left and Right Directional
Arrows let you know to use the
LEFT
or
RIGHT ARROW
keys
to highlight an icon for selection.
Another navigational aid is the
Scroll Bar
along the right side
of the screen. The position of its
scroll box tells you which menu
screen you’re viewing.
The
Title Bar
shows you the
name of the current menu, test
tool, utility, or function.
Press the
POWER
button to
turn the EXP on and off. The
EXP also turns on automatically
when you connect its test leads
to a battery.
Whichever way you turn on the
EXP, it always highlights the icon
and setting you last used for
your convenience.
