12.6 Channel Menu
Each High-Level Input channel is configured and calibrated via its channel menu.
Detailed instructions on operating the instrument in the SETUP Menu mode can
be found in “SETUP Menu mode” on page 23. A diagram of all menus is located
in “Setup Menu Reference” on page 133.
12.6.1
OPERATION
Sub-Menu
This menu controls the operation of this channel when the instrument is in the
RUN mode.
AUTO-ZERO
Menu Item
This enables or disables the channel’s automatic zeroing function. The auto-zero
function can remove the effect of slight temperature shifts in the transducer’s out-
put. The two options for this menu item are “
ON
” and “
OFF
”.
When enabled, the channel will reset its tracking value to zero when the tracking
value has never been more positive than +10 or more negative than -10 display
counts for any 10 second period.
For example, assume that the
DISPLAY.DECPT
menu item is set to
000.00
(two deci-
mal points). If the tracking value never leaves the range of
-000.10
to
+000.10
for
any 10 second period, then tracking value will reset to
000.00
automatically.
FREQ. RESPONSE
Menu Item
This sets the frequency response, step response, and resolution of the channel
according to the table below. The tracking value, peak/valley detector values and
DAC Output are all affected. The default value of
016. HERTZ
is suitable for most
applications.
POWER-ON SOURCE
Menu Item
This menu selects which value is displayed by the channel when first entering the
RUN mode.
The choices are:
•
“
TRACK
” means the live tracking value of the channel.
•
“
PEAK
” means the highest value of the channel.
•
“
VALLEY
” means the lowest value of the channel.
NOTICE
To compensate for the transducer’s initial warm-up shift, the auto-zero function
operates every 2 seconds during the first 60 seconds of RUN mode operation.
