OPERATING MULTIMET
2.1
Getting Started
When first switched on, the Multimet performs a series of self test routines
and displays the currently installed software version. Following successful
completion of these routines, a system prompt will request entry of the
current time and date.
It is important to set the current time and date correctly whenever
the internal data logging facility is used. This ensures that all recorded data is
correctly marked with corresponding date and time markers.
2.2
Setting the Time and Date
Adjustment of the time and date is performed using the appropriate grey
buttons located on the front of the instrument, immediately below each
option shown on the display.
The internal clock may also be set automatically from the Online Pro
P.C software, as described later.
It will be necessary to reset the clock whenever the power supply
has been disconnected from the system.
Following the entry of time and date, the display will present the
Main compass display containing 2 minute rolling average data.
2.2.1 Adjusting back light and contrast
Briefly press the blue button to gain access
to the LCD lighting and contrast
adjustment.
Adjust the settings to provide the
most comfortable image by using the
options shown on the display.
2.2.2 Changing displayed information
The Multimet can display data in a variety of formats to suit the specific
demands of industrial, meteorological, aviation and marine users. The
averaging period for displayed data values may be selected as either
instantaneous, 2 minute or 10 minute rolling averages.
Pressing any of the grey buttons will cause a menu to be displayed
at the bottom of the screen. The menu shows the current function assigned
to each button. If no button is pressed for 5 seconds, the menu will slowly
scroll off the bottom of the screen.
