If Change Parameter is selected (factory setting), the Edit function is active

This is the length of time that will pass after the last operation is finished

Power OFF Time setting. Use the arrows to the right of the current setting
to change the value or highlight the current setting and type in the desired
value. It is defined in seconds with a maximum setting of 3600 seconds (1
hour). The factory setting is 3600 seconds.

Load Data Logger is not selected, selecting Clear After Download has no

Down Load Interval

The Down Load Interval is the length of time, in days, that will pass before

instrument if Down Load Data Logger is selected. If the instrument is
connected to the program before the interval has passed, a data download
will not automatically occur. The Down Load Interval can be set anywhere
from 1 to 60 days. The factory setting is 1 day. Use the arrows to the right
of the current setting to change the interval or highlight the current setting
and type in the desired value.
