Auto-Run settings (timer, pauses) tab
The
Timer
panel enables the user to program the internal real time clock to act as a delayed start and
stop timer. The instrument can be switched on by itself at the pre-selected programmed time and it can then
perform the measurement run, which was used before it was last switched off. Auto-run feature is useful
if you wish to pre-set the instruments to run and stop for a specific time period, such as a week long study.
