Chapter 4
Basic Operations
Before using the GSR2600 for the first time, ensure that you
have followed the setup instructions in Chapter 2, Quick
Start System Setup
.
In this chapter, all discussions about the GSR2600 being
turned off are with the understanding that the GSR2600 is
still connected to a power source (internal batteries or
external source).
The following sections explain how to use your GSR2600 to
manually and automatically collect data.
4.1
Turn On System
The GSR2600 receiver has a power button that, when
pushed, will turn on or off the GSR2600 receiver and
system peripherals. For more information on power
settings, see Section 5.1, Power Button, on Page 33.
4.2
System Inactivity
Using the SETTINGS > Sleep menu, you can set the
GSR2600 to automatically turn off if left inactive for a
period of five minutes (in other words, if there is no COM
port activity and no data recording). For more information
on Sleep, see Section 6.6.2, Sleep, Page 70.
CAUTION
See Section 1.6, GSR2600 Usage Cautions, on Page 6 for a list of items and
conditions that you should be aware of as you use the GSR2600.
