1-5
REM (Remote)
Annunciator.
Indicates the Host
Computer and the
Instrument are
communicating on the
network, i.e., the
instrument is being
operated remotely.
REM SCAN
MON
mV DC
CH
SCAN (Scanning)
Annunciator.
Indicates the
instrument is
scanning.
MON (Monitor)
Annunciator.
Indicates the
instrument is
monitoring a channel
(in this example,
analog channel 8).
You can monitor a
channel with or
without instrument
scanning.
1208 (Global Channel
Number).
Indicates the channel
being monitored is
1208. This number
consists of the
instrument Base
Channel Number (12)
and the selected
channel (08).
14.721 (Reading).
Indicates the reading
of the channel being
monitored has a value
of 14.721. This
display is limited to 4
1/2 digits of resolution.
m Annunciator.
Indicates the multiplier
for the reading is .001
(milli). The other
multipliers are k (kilo,
1000), and M (mega,
1,000,000).
V DC (Volts DC)
Annunciator.
Indicates that the
number shown in the
primary display
(14.721) is the
function volts dc.
CH (Channel)
Annunciator.
Indicates the number
shown in the
secondary display
(1208) is the Global
Channel Number.
