Note: Volume and sensitivity are not the same. Volume adjusts the
loudness of the signal in the headset. Sensitivity adjusts the meters
reaction to the incoming signal.
Selecting the Sensor:
Press the “MODE” button until the alphanumeric display reads “AirH”, “AirL”,
“PrbH”, “PrbL”, or “PrbS”. The instrument will wait 3 seconds after releasing the
MODE button for you to press the
“
”
or
“
”
button which locks in the
sensor/frequency selection.
Adjusting the Display:
The alphanumeric display offers three viewing options. Continuous, Peak, and
Off. Press the “MODE” button twice. The display will read “Disp” until released,
then show the current setting. Pressing the “
” or “
”
buttons it will scroll
through the display options which are as follows...
“Cont”
= Continuous, the
A.N.D. will show the level of the signal in real time.
“Peak”
= Peak Hold, the
A.N.D. will hold the highest reading for 5 seconds.
“Off”
= Turns the
alphanumeric display off (with the exception of the “
-
“). Since this display is not
necessary for most airborne applications, turning it off can save a tremendous
amount of battery.
NOTE:
The adjustments you have just made are now in memory, and will remain
there until they are changed or the battery is removed.
