QUESTempº II
Defaults
The factory settings for the QUESTEMP
II are as follows:
The default settings for the
CLOCK, PRINT baud rate, PRINT RATE
, and
ALARM
LEVEL
can be changed by the user. When the unit is powered
OFF
, the settings at that
time will be stored as the new default values. Temperature, however, will always default
to Celsius and the CALibration level will be reset to 0
C whenever the unit is
RESET
(at
power
OFF
, the last value of CALibration is stored).
Data Logging
In the
RUN mode
, every ten seconds the QUESTEMP
II will store the ear and earmold
temperature data as well as oral temperature data if the thermometer is plugged in to the
CAL jack
. The numbers stored represent the average value for the previous 10
seconds. The data can be transmitted to a computer or printer (see the section
PRINTING).
The logged information can be cleared from memory by pressing the
RESET key
for a
count down of 3 seconds. Turning the unit
OFF
will not effect the memory. If the unit is
put in the
RUN mode
multiple times without
RESET
, data will be stored following the
information already in memory.
12.5 hours of data can be logged. Once the memory is full, the unit can no longer store
data but it will continue to operate.
Printing
Logged information can be sent to a computer or serial printer using an RS232 serial protocol.
The amount of data printed is determined by the instrument’s
PRINT RATE key
.
