6. Use the

and

keys to scroll through the BRT (LO, MED, HI
options.

7. When the desired BRT setting is displayed, press the

key to set the

brightness andreturn to the measurement screen.

Note

: Pressing the

key prior to pressing the

key will abort to the

measurement screen without saving changes.

8.7 Beep

The TI-007X also has a feature to use the internal beeper, most commonly used with the
alarm feature, for the key strokes on the keypad. When enabled, pressing any of the keys
on the keypad will sound the beeper.

The procedure to enable the keyboard beeper feature is outlined below:

1. Press the

key to access the menu items/features.

2. Use the

and

keys to scroll through the items/features until
the

BEEPER

feature is being displayed.

3. Press the

key to edit the beeper setting. The edit icon will be illuminated

and flashing.

4. Use the

and

keys to toggle the beeper on/off.

Note

: Pressing the

key prior to pressing the

key will abort to the

measurement screen without saving changes.

5. When the desired BEEP setting is displayed, press the

key to set the status

and return to the measurement screen.

8.8 Probe Type

The TI-007XL can use three different probe/transducer styles for different application
requirements. The styles are; CONTACT, DELAY LINE, and plastics PLAS. The
corresponding option ‘must’ be selected to match the type of transducer connected to
the TI-007X DL in order for the gauge to operate correctly.

The procedure to select the probe type is outlined below:

1 Press the

key to access the menu items/features.

2. Use the

and

keys to scroll through the items/features until the

PROB

feature is being displayed.
