Chapter 4: Utilities; Selecting A Warn/Fail Threshold (Warning); Selecting Celsius Or Fahrenheit (Temp) - Midtronics Celltron Ultra Instruction Manual

Chapter 4: Utilities

The UTILITIES SETUP menu has eight options, three of which support the test process. If you make
no selections, the analyzer uses the default settings. For the critical WARNING and TEMP settings,
the analyzer will remind you with a PREFERENCES NOT SET message until you change or accept
the default settings.
The utilities are:
•
WARNING (voltage threshold for failing jars and strings)
•
TEMP (Celsius or Fahrenheit)
•
MODE (auto or manual test startup)
•
CLOCK (date and time)
•
DISPLAY (contrast and backlight duration)
•
LANGUAGE (selecting the language)
•
UPDATE (update the Celltron ULTRA software)
Selecting a warn/fail threshold
The WARNING utility enables you to set the percentages of the reference value below which a jar
and string must fall to generate a WARN or a FAIL notice on the printed test results. A question mark
(?) appears next to jars and strings as a warning. An exclamation mark (!) appears if the jar or string
is failing.
