5.2.4.1 for details on configuring the individual streams). The actual time period
that the stream is measured is the measurement Duration minus the 30 second dwell.
So, a 1-minute measurement Duration consists of 30 seconds of dwell followed by
30 seconds of measurement.
For systems that do not require a 30 second dwell between streams, this value can
be changed using the DWELL Var (Table 5-5).

When in Manual mode, pressing the button below the Up or Down arrows will
switch to the next stream. To return to Auto mode, either allow the instrument to
switch after a 10 minute time-out (can be set on or off in the Setup>Vars menu), or
exit this manual mode screen using the back button. The default state for the
Manual mode timeout is ON, which is the recommended setting for instruments
used for critical safety applications. This feature prevents the instrument from being
inadvertently left in Manual mode, and subsequent loss of monitoring data from the
other, unmeasured channels. For applications where Manual mode is the preferred
mode of operation, this timeout feature can be turned off. See Section 5.2.4.2 for
details on changing this setting.
