Example 1: Setting the Date & Time and Adjusting the Brightness
In Example 1, you will set the date and time on the instrument’s built-in clock
and adjust the brightness of the screen.
In this operation, you will set the date and time on the instrument.
Be sure to do this when using the instrument for the first time. Once set, there
will usually be no need to reset these values. However, if the instrument has not
been used for an extended period of time, the date and time may be incorrect; in
such cases, you should set these values again using the same procedure. The date
and time are important, as they are used as a time stamp when creating or editing
files.
In this example, you will set the date to February 1, 1994 and the time to 15:30,
using the following procedure.
1. Press the UTILITY button in the MENU column.
2. Select Date Time from the bottom menu.
The menu shown in Figure 2 -12 will appear.
