QuadTech Sentry Plus Series Instruction Manual page 33

POWER UP and STAND BY Displays
The Sentry Plus Series instruments have multiple menus or displays that may seem confusing at
first glance. In an attempt to clarify the numerous functions of the software, this instruction
manual will illustrate these displays in a (hopefully) logical format. The function keys (F1, F2,
F3 & F4) perform different tasks depending upon the menu currently shown on the display.
Figure 2-2 illustrates the instrument display when the instrument is initially turned on.

To access the programming function of the Sentry Plus Series instrument in the STAND BY
menu, press the [F1] key (PROGRAM). Once in the PROGRAM display, select the test step
then the test mode (AC, DC, IR, GC or PA). Paragraphs 2.4 - 2.8 illustrate how to program the
specific parameters of each of the 5 tests.
This manual is set up so if you follow the instructions in paragraphs 2.4-2.9 you will have programmed a 5-step test
