Applying the Changes and Returning to Operation Mode
Press the key or SHIFT + key to select End and then press the key. Press
the key to select Store and then press the key. The changes are applied, and
the screen returns to Operation mode. If you select Abort and press the key, the
changes are discarded, and the screen returns to Operation mode. Press the ESC key

Explanation
Timers
Timer features
• The timer determines the interval used to calculate the report data (the average,
minimum, maximum, sum value), etc.
• The timer is also used to set the interval at which the computed values are printed on
the chart paper.
Number of Timers
There are two timers: Timer No. 1 and 2.
Timer Type
There are two timer modes, absolute time mode and relative time mode.
• Absolute Time Mode
After the computation is started, the timer times out at the times determined by the
reference time (on the hour) and the interval. The reference time is set on the hour
(00 to 23).
Example 1: Reference time: 14:00
Interval: 12h
The timeout times are hour 2 and hour 14.
Example 2: Reference time: 00:00
Interval: 10min
The timeout times are 0 hour, 0 hour 10 min, 0 hour 20 min, ... 23 hour
40 min, and 23 hour 50 min. For example, if computation is started at 9
hour 36 min, the timeout times are 09 hour 40 min, 09 hour 50 min, 10
hour, and so on.
• Relative Time Mode
The clock is started in sync with the starting of the computation, and the timer times
out every specified interval. In this mode, the timer and the clock stop when a power
failure occurs.
Example: Interval: 00:15
The timer times out every 15 minutes after the computation is started.
