Memory Store & Recall

Memory Functions

Press

STORE

to save up to 19 flash rates. When

memory location number in the upper right corner of the display and the
value flashes to confirm storage. Data is saved to the next available memory

Press

RECALL

to cycle through stored measurements. The memory

location numbers appear in the upper right corner of the display.

Referencing Memory to Physical Locations

To reference your tests to specific memory locations, first activate the
required number of locations by storing data (any value) in them. Then
press

RECALL

until the memory location number appears, adjust the

flash rate and press

to overwrite the current value.

Using this method, numbered machinery or processes may be referenced
to corresponding memory location numbers and recalled for quick
retests so only fine adjustments to the flash rate are necessary.

Clear Memory

With power on, simultaneously press

STORE

and

RECALL

show a row of dashes and all memory locations will be
erased. To erase an individual memory press

After your stroboscope is set to a constant flash rate, the
instrument will automatically power off after two minutes.
Press any key except

to extend the operating time

another two minutes.
To disable power management, turn off the unit, then press
and hold

STORE

while pressing

When the strobe receives an input signal, the External
Trigger icon flashes at the bottom left of the display. The
strobe’s flash rate corresponds to the frequency of the
input signal. The display will indicate this rate in flashes
per minute. To disable External Trigger Mode, turn off the
strobe and remove the input plug.

To synchronize two ESL-20 stroboscopes, connect one ESL-20 output
port to the other strobe's input port (this one will be the slave).

Digital Phase Shift

The input signal’s cycle is 360°. Alternatively, the delayed angle of the
input cycle can be viewed and displayed by adjusting the > and < keys.
The range of this adjustment (phase shift) is 0 to 359°. Three seconds
after the phase angle is set the display will return to flashes per minute,
while maintaining the phase shift setting. When the instrument is
switched off, the phase shift setting is reset to zero.
