Measurement configuration list
From the measurement screen, press the right arrow key until the list of measurement configurations
stored in the instrument is displayed.
Note: These configurations are defined by the user on the PC (see Create new measurement configuration table
on page 10) and imported into the instrument (see Transfer files to the instrument on page 10). Only the default
configuration (ID0) can be edited by the user from the instrument. To do this the user must be logged on at
supervisor level and the default parameters can then be edited from the Main Menu as described in Default
measurement configuration settings on page 17.
Press the up and down arrow keys to scroll through the list of measurement configurations. When the
required one is highlighted press the Enter key to select it. The selected configuration details will be
displayed on screen.
Press the Enter key again to select this configuration and return to the measurement screen, or
Cancel to reject it and return to the measurement configuration list screen.
Measurement alarms
If a problem occurs during measurement, the system will alternate every second between the
measurement screen and the error message screen.
The measurement value is displayed in red to indicate a measurement outside the pre-defined alarm
limits. The alarm low value on the right side of that screen is also displayed in red to indicate the
reason the measurement value is in error.
The error message screen gives the reason why the measurement is invalid.
Note: If the measured value goes back above this low value, the value is again displayed in blue and the error
message screen is no longer shown.
