APPENDIX A - AUTOMATIC MODE OPERATION
GENERAL
: this mode was developed for semi-technical users who only require a limited number of
instrument functions and do not want to select relatively complex system functions and
parameters.
The operating parameters are selected by a local technical person to suit the application and then
the system is set into the AUTOMATIC operating mode. Operating functions are described
below.
A.1 JOYSTICK
The GR-135 is equipped with a rubber-covered
JOYSTICK on the instrument handle, referred to in
this manual as the JOYSTICK and this is the ONLY
control on the instrument. The great advantage of
this single button control is that besides being very
easy to use it also permits full operation EVEN
WEARING GLOVES – a definite advantage in many
applications where protection clothing is required.
As the figure shows
LEFT, RIGHT, UP
(away from you) and
DOWN
(towards you)
are the 4 normal actions of the joystick. For
mechanical reasons the user can also press the
button
IN
(into the handle)
BUT THIS
HAS NO EFFECT AT ALL.
For ease of use the system is arranged so ANY ACTION EXCEPT UP – is considered an action and
is referred to in this manual as
ENTER
. This means that LEFT/RIGHT and DOWN (towards
you) any of these actions act as an
ENTER
command to the system. (Most users find that
pressing the button DOWN is the easiest)
Once again - IN has NO FUNCTION
A.2 LOADING BATTERIES
To load batteries, remove the battery backdoor at the rear of the instrument by
applying a ¼ turn to the door lock. Insert the two rechargeable D-cell batteries
with the "+" to the small brass ring and the “-“ to the spring. The fabric strip
should be placed BEHIND the batteries to aid in their removal in an “S” fashion to
be able to remove each battery separately (see fig).
Ensure that both batteries are firmly seated, attach the plastic battery retainer clip
then re-attach the door.
