10.1 Access to the main menu
The main menu can be accessed through the quick access menu, option

or by pressing
<
and

10.4.2
Setup
The timer mode allows configuring 3 timers with different units and times. These timers are called
"presets." These presets on the function menu are available to the user through the quick access menu,
making it easier to operate machines with different timings. When choosing the timer mode on the
function menu
[TemP]
, it is possible to change the parameters relating to this operating mode in the
following order:
[Uni1]
- Units of the preset's time base
[RC1,]
:
[Sec,]
- Seconds and hundredths.
[Min,]
- Minutes and seconds.
[
Hour]
- Hours and minutes.
[tRC1]
- Timing of preset
[RC1,]
:
This parameter allows changing the desired value of the preset's timing in accordance with the time
base previously chosen. This parameter can also be changed in the quick access menu (see item 8.1).
NOTE:
Preset
[Rc1,]
is active by factory default.
