D. RUN/HALT INTERNAL CLOCK
To access the run/halt feature in the internal clock, press the ON button and while the indicator is
on the segments test press the ESC button twice.
The display will show “td-Con”. Press the ENTER key to display the current time date control
step or press ESC to cycle through the user menus.
Use the arrow keys to change the display from run to halt and back. The two setting for the
run/halt setting are:
Clock Run/Halt td run= Clock is running

Note: Selecting tdHALt will power off the TCX 1300. This step allows the user to stop the TCX
1300’s Time / Date Clock to save battery life. This step should be used only if the TCX 1300 is to
be stored for a long period of time. This option is rarely if ever used in the field.

transmit the print command to the TCX 1300 for the remote printing.
The serial port setup can be accessed at the power on, by pressing the ESC key three times during
the Segment Test. The ESC key is also used to toggle through cub-sections of the setup. The
ENTER key is used to access steps within a sub-section.
