3.5 PROGRAMMING
Throughout this manual push-buttons are shown
in italics e.g.
P
or
Up
push-button, and legends
displayed by the instrument are shown within
inverted commas e.g. 'InPut A' and 'COdE'.
3.5.1 Accessing programme functions
Access to the programme menu is obtained by
operating the
P
and
E
push-buttons
simultaneously. If the BA364D is not protected
by a security code the first parameter ‘Function’
will be displayed. If a security code other than
the default code 0000 has already been entered,
the instrument will display 'COdE'. Press
P
to
clear this prompt and enter the security code for
the instrument using the
Up
or
Down
push-button
to adjust each digit, and the
P
push-button to
move control to the next digit. If the correct code
has been entered pressing
E
will cause the first
parameter ‘Function’ to be displayed. If an
incorrect code is entered, or a push-button is not
operated for ten seconds, the instrument will
automatically return to the display mode.
Once within the main programme menu the
required parameter can be reached by scrolling
through the menu using the
Up
and
Down
push-
buttons as shown by the timer programme
structure in Fig 3.3.
This section summarises all the timer
programmable parameters excluding the optional
control outputs. When read in conjunction with
Fig 3.3 it provides a quick aid for programming
the instrument. If more detail is required, each
section contains a reference to a full description
of the function.
Programming details for the optional control
outputs are contained in section 3.6.
