buttons analogously to the
Start Hour
position.
Note:
The instrument’s Timer function can be used for multiple measurements (at the programmed
day and time with the selected repetition number). The first switch on of the instrument must be within
one month ahead. Make sure that the RTC is set correctly before trying to set a value for a delayed
Start/Stop Timer.
Note: Make sure that there is sufficient power available for the instrument to carry out the required
measurement when it wakes up and starts the recording.
5.11.1 Example timer execution
The
Timer
function is used to programme the instrument to switch on at the
desired time and perform the measurements with the parameters set in the
Measurement
sub-list.
Let us assume that the user wants to switch on the instrument on the 3rd of
December, at 20:00, measure the sound for 1 minute and save the results in
a file named
L2831
.
To do this the user should set the parameters of the
Timer
function, the
measurement parameters (
path: <Menu> / Measurement / General Settings
),
name the file (
path: <Menu> / Measurement / Logger / Logger Setup
) and
finally
– switch off the instrument.
The instrument will be switched on the 3rd of December at 20:00 and will be
warmed up for the period of 60 seconds decrementing the counter visible on
the display by one after each second.
After warming up the instrument and the pre-set
Start Delay
time, the
measurements will be performed for a period of one minute. Then, the results
will be saved in the previously named file and finally
– the instrument will switch
itself off.
In this example the delayed start time on the meter can be configured any time
during the previous month. It is recommended that for simplicity the
Start
Delay
time is set to 0 seconds for use with the
Timer
function.
