Activate the Memory

Manager dialog. Press

to focus on the desired data

group. Press F2 to prompt

out the commands list.

Then select the command

“Set” and press

to

confirm.

After finished the above steps, the new selected data group will be set as current data group to

store the new coming testing results.

5.10.4 Clear Selected Group

The user may require the contents of an entire data group be completely cleared of all

measurements. This would allow the user to start a new list of measurements starting at storage
location No.00. The procedure is outlined in the following steps.

Activate the Memory

Manager dialog.

Press

to focus on

the desired data group.

Press F2

to prompt out

the commands list. Then

select

the

command

“Clear” and press

to

confirm.

If the “Clear All” command is selected and confirmed, all the data groups of the gauge will be

cleared.

Note: Once cleared, the data is not able to be recovered!

5.11 Key Sound Setting

Key sound can be configured to on or off. When the key sound is set to on, the buzzer inside

the main unit would make a short audible alarm while press the key each time.

5.12 Warn Sound Setting

Warning sound can be configured to on or off. If the warning sound is set to on, the buzzer

inside the main unit would make a long audible alarm when a new measured value appears. When
the main unit gives out some operation warnings it will also give a alarm sound if the setting is on.

5.13 LCD Brightness Setting

The different brightness of the LCD will affect battery standby time and continuously working

time. .

The setting can be

changed by scrolling with

F1 (increase) and F2

(decrease) keys, or by

pressing arrow keys.

Press

or F3 key to

confirm the setting.

Press

key to cancel

the change and close the

dialog box.

The instrument consumes less current in lower brightness and consequently increases the
operating time.
