Operating Procedures

Moving between Modes

To Adjust Mode

When the 

L

 key is pressed for one second in Run Mode, the 7-

segment display will begin to flash. If the key is held down for another 
two seconds, the mode will be switched to Adjust Mode.
To return to Run Mode from Adjust Mode, press the 

L

 key for at least 

one second.

To Protection Settings Mode

When the 

L

 and 

M

 keys are pressed for one second in Run Mode, 

the 7-segment display will begin to flash. If the keys are held down for 
another five seconds, the mode will be switched to Protection Settings 
Mode. To return to Run Mode from Protection Settings Mode, press 

L

 and 

M

 keys for at least one second.

To Gate Mode

When the 

D

 key is pressed for at least one second in Run Mode, the 

mode will be switched to Gate Mode. To return to Run Mode from 
Gate Mode, press the 

D

 key for at least one second.

To Test Mode

When the 

S

 key is pressed for at least one second in Run Mode, the 

mode will be switched to Test Mode. To return to Run Mode from Test 
Mode, press the 

S

 key for at least one second.

To Set Mode (Password Input)

A special operation is required to move to the Set Mode. 
Use the following procedure.

Setting the Parameter

The value set for each parameter is called the “set value.” Set values 
include both numbers and characters.
The status when a set value is displayed is called “monitor status,” 
and when it can be changed it is called “change status.”
Use the following procedure to display and change set values.

If the set value is not to be changed, press the 

key while in monitor status to switch to the next 
parameter.

B.

Press the

 key again while in monitor status to 

enable the changing set value.

· The place where the set value can be changed will 

begin to flash.

C.

Press the 

M

 key to save the changed set value in 

internal memory and switch to the next parameter.

· Changed set values will not be saved in memory if 

the mode is changed by another key operation

Note:

If a set value is out of 

range, either too high or too 

low, the maximum or 

minimum value will 

automatically be set. For 

models with a current input 

of 0.200 to 2.200 A, for 

example, the maximum 

value is 2.200 and the 

minimum value is 0.200.
