both settings can be changed via the recorder’s keypad.
Sweep frequency: Choose a default sweep frequency. Most sensors use the "C"

frequencies in Section 2, "Taking Readings".
Default temperature device: Choose Thermistor. This choice affects the Type menu.

4.4 STANDBY DELAY
This setting controls how long the recorder waits before going into standby mode. For
example, if you choose 30 minutes, the recorder will wait 30 minutes after the last key
press before going into standby mode. Note that the standby mode still requires power,
so when you are finished taking readings, always switch the recorder off.

computer’s clock.
To set a different time, click in the date and time fields, type in values, and click OK. The
