Initial Set-Up; Setting The Date And Time - Satron Instruments VC Quick Start Manual

Initial Set-up

The initial set-up consists of three steps.
1. Set the Date and Time
2. Set the operating range for Consistency (IO1).
3. If a Sampling Switch was not purchased and a user supplied
Switch is not being added, skip this step. If a user supplied
Sampling Switch is added, you must configure the Sample Digital

The Satron RDU is the local interface and consists of a liquid crystal
display (LCD) and operating keys.
The RDU is able of displaying live operating conditions, perform diagnostic tests, view device information

modification of the display parameters:

Setting the Date and Time

It is very important to set the correct date and time in the transmitter. The date and time are used to time
stamp the samples extracted from the process and to mark the diagnostic events that may occur during
transmitter operation.
The time and date values are set through the Configuration Menu/System Configuration Submenu.
