Explanation
When the power is turned on with [Local]
pressed, the lock-in returns to its standard
default settings. See the Standard Settings list in
the Operation section for a complete listing of
the settings.
First let's set the SR865 clock.
The system menu is where instrument
parameters (not measurement parameters) are
set. This includes file numbering, interface
settings and software updates.
The time and date are used to label data files,
screen shots, and saved settings.
Let's change the lock-in setup so that we have a
non-default setup to save.
Change the Sensitivity, Time Constant and
Filter Slope.
