It is possible to adjust several parameters of the instrument using the front panel
buttons. The number and combination of settings enabled for editing in your particular
device depends on factory pre-sets and may vary in each instrument. See below the
manufacturer default list of settings that may be enabled for editing in the instrument:
•
n coefficient, gamma
may be setup in the range of 1.0 to 9.9 with increment of 0.1.
The manufacturer’s recommended value is 4.0.
•
Enable or disable the
Audible alarm
on reaching the alarm threshold.
•
Enable or disable the
Vibration alarm
on reaching the alarm threshold.
