Caution: Edits made to the current or next segment of the running
profile will take effect until after the profile is restarted.
Timer Start
Function Enable or disable automatic starting of profiles. When enabled, delayed
starts are possible, or if the selected profile has a day & time trigger it waits
until the time set before starting.
Note: If the Timer Start Function is disabled, profiles can only be
manually started, and with immediate effect even if they have a
delay or day & time trigger defined.
Create A Profile
 Sub-menu to create a new profile. A header is created first, followed by the
segments – see below.
Caution: It is not possible to exit from this sub-menu until profile
creation is fully complete. Do not turn off the power during profile
creation or editing. When the profile creation/editing is complete the
instrument returns automatically to the profile setup main menu.
Note: A warning is displayed if the maximum number of 64
profiles or 255 segments is exceeded.
