Figure 16. Instrument Info
The display shows the instrument type in line 2 of the display. The version number and
date (year-month-date) of the internal software of the instrument is shown in line 3.
The serial number of the instrument is shown in line 4 of the display. The display text is
almost identical to the start-up display text (
Figure 8 ).
5.5.5 Saving parameters
The settings changed through the user function are in effect immediately. Some of the
settings, e.g. contrast are not automatically saved as the future settings of the
instrument, but in that case the user is prompted for confirmation upon shutting down
the instrument. Status such as date, time and counter are saved automatically. Thus
when the NucleoCounter is turned off, after changing status not saved automatically,
the display will read “Save parameters?”, "ENTER: Save" and "ESC: Cancel".
Save parameters?

ESC : Cancel
