Moves the Tab Control to the next Display Tab.
There are four LED indicators for the instrument above the display tabs. They are:
The Over temp LED illuminates when the measure probe temperature exceeds 65°C. This
LED is only updated when the unit is armed and triggered.
The Out of Range LED illuminates when the internal ADC detects a voltage outside of its
measurement range. This LED is only updated when the unit is armed and triggered.
The Wavelength Correction On LED illuminates if Wavelength Correction is On.
The Temperature Correction On LED illuminates if Temperature Correction is On.
The Instrument Control Display Tab also shown in figure 3 is used to control instrument
settings that are not as frequently used as those on the Main Display The display contains
controls and indicators.
The Instrument Control Display
The Controls on the Instrument Control Display area are:
Temperature Correction
Turns Temperature Compensation On. The instrument measures the temperature of the
sensor and records the data with each pulse. If Temperature Compensation is On, this
data is used to compensate the measured pulse data for temperature induced responsivity
changes. If Temperature Compensation is Off, the data is not corrected. The instrument
always sends the temperature data with the pulse data. Compensation is done by the host
application.
Wavelength Correction
Turns Wavelength Compensation On. The sensor responsivity is wavelength dependant.
Turning Wavelength Compensation On causes the instrument to restructure its internal
gains to compensate for the variation in responsivity. Since the sensor responsivity varies
