To turn off the instrument, press and hold the button
until the shutdown message
appears.
The meter also has an automatic power-off function to save battery capacity. If there
is no operation for a certain period of time (set as automatic power-off delay), the meter
will automatically turn off.
Note: the device switches off automatically if the battery capacity is too low.
4.4 Configuration of the standby settings
To save battery power, the device supports the following power supply modes:
Run state
- The unit operates at full frequency
Standby state
- After 5 seconds (default setting), the LCD brightness is set to a low
level and the CPU operates at a lower frequency. This has no effect on the data or
memory. Pressing any button or taking a measurement will return the unit to the
operating mode and reset the default brightness.
Power off state
- After 2 minutes (default setting), the unit will go from standby mode
to power off mode. The unit and display are off and consume very little power. Pressing
any key will prevent the unit from entering the power off state with a message "Idle
Timeout! (period of inactivity expired!) is displayed and the operating mode is restored.
Switching from operating mode to standby mode is done according to the standby
delay setting of the display. The time delay can be configured by the user in the Display
Standby
Delay
dialog box. The unit can be reset from standby mode to operating mode
by any user activity.
