Front Panel Display and Indicators

LED
The light-emitting diode (LED) front panel indicator flashes each time a measurement is successfully
completed. The rate at which the LED indicator flashes is dependent upon the gate setting and the oper-
ating mode.
BEEPER
The beeper, when enabled, provides an audible indication that a measurement has been successfully com-
pleted in either the FILTER mode or the CAPTURE mode. It provides essentially the same information
as the LED indicator. However, in CAPTURE mode a double beep is used to indicate the capture of a
new frequency, while a single beep is used to indicate the capture of a frequency already stored in one of
the memory locations. The beeper is useful in applications in which it may not be possible or convenient
to look at the front panel. If the CAPTURE switch is in the ON position at power-up, the beeper is
enabled and the beeper annunciator is displayed.
VIBRATOR
The vibrator, when enabled, provides a tactile indication that a measurement has been successfully com-
pleted in either the FILTER mode or the CAPTURE mode. It provides essentially the same information
as the LED indicator. The vibrator is useful in applications in which secrecy is required.
