3.4 System Related Operations
In DL-1060, each system related operation performs a task that is not measurement
related but plays an important role in making your measurements.
3.4.1 Display
DL-1060 has a dual-LCD-display screen. A maximum of 11 characters are allowed for
upper row primary display and a maximum of 16 characters are allowed for lower row
secondary display as shown on
Figure 3-29
. You have an option to turn off the
display for a faster measurement without waiting for display, or when the
measurement is done through the remote interface operations on their PC terminal.
Figure 3-29
When the display is turned off, an “OFF” will be lit a
t right side of the display screen.
This doesn't mean the display is POWER-OFF, but only that the measurement readings
will not be sent to the display. This option will accelerate the measurement process
because there is no I/O delay. But turning off the display will not affect the messages
displayed from the RECALL, MENU and CONFIG operations. You can send a message
through the remote interface from their PC terminal to the lower row display and will
substitute the original display.
Default
The display de
fault is “ON”. The “On/Off” selection made by
you are stored in a
volatile memory and the default (ON) will be restored when the meter is power-off.
How to control the display
You can control the display through the front panel operation or through the remote
interface operation. The remote interface operation has higher priority over the front
panel operation.
