Display Features
The EM13X Series display has a number of programmable features that
can be disabled, enabled and adjusted via the meter Display Setup
(see
Display Setup
in Chapter 5).
Backlight
A short press on any button while the display backlight is off switches
the backlight on.
The backlight stays on as long as you selected in the display setup and
then dims to conserve power. The backlight time is factory set to 1
minute and can be programmed from 1 to 10 minutes. You can
temporarily set the backlight to continuous operation if you need to
work in dark for more time.
Auto-Return
If the Auto-Return feature is enabled and no button is pressed for the
programmable Auto-Return interval (1 to 30 minutes for data displays;
fixed at 5 minutes for setup menus), the display automatically returns
to the default page from any other data display or a setup menu.
If the Auto-Scroll feature is enabled, the display immediately enters
the auto scroll sequence.
Auto-Scroll
If the Auto-Scroll feature is enabled, the data display automatically
scrolls through all pages of all data displays that are included into the
programmable auto-scroll sequence. The scroll interval is adjustable in
the range of 2 to 30 seconds. The scroll sequence may include all or
only selected displays.
The display automatically enters auto scrolling if no button is pressed
for the Auto-Return interval when the Auto-Return feature is enabled
or in 1 minute if this feature is disabled. In the last case, the scroll
sequence is restored from the point where it was interrupted.
To stop auto scrolling, press briefly any button if the backlight is on;
else press briefly any button twice since the first press only sets the
backlight on and does not affect auto scrolling.
Auto-Scroll is not operational in TEST mode.
