print mode and finally initiate either of the timed modes of operation. While setting
up the timed mode parameters, continuous print operation will cease. However, upon
starting the timed operation, the DV-II+Pro will output an initial data string to the printer
and then continue printing data strings (at the user defined time interval) for the duration
of the timed run. At the end of the timed run, continuous printing will again be disabled
and the user may print single strings (of the final data point) at your option until you exit
the timed mode. Upon returning to the default operation mode, continuous printing will
again resume at the user selected time interval. In a similar manner, if you are in the
once-per-
PRINT
-key-press mode, when you enter the timed mode of operation you will
be able to print data strings at any time during the timed mode by pressing the
PRINT
key.

interval mode, or exit to the default screen (Figure II-5) by pressing the
MOTOR ON/OFF/ESCAPE
