1.9.5 Eco ModeEco Mode offers a battery saving feature. Eco mode will power down the iPA’s instrument RF stages when not in use,helping to extend the battery life. Remote control and hotspot functions are still active, so the user can still access allthe report functions and data while the iPA is in Eco Mode. This also allows remote users to return the instrument to themeasurement mode of their choice whenever it is required. In addition to Eco Mode the local instrument display hasa display dimming function that can be set to operate independently saving even more battery current. Eco Mode andthe display dimming functions have their own timers that can be set in the Settings/Miscellaneous menu on the LOCALconsole. The iPA can be set into Eco mode immediately via the mode menu both on the LOCAL console and remotely.Eco mode also frees up processor capacity. When generating large reports and uploading and downloading files, being inEco mode can make these jobs finish quicker.Figure 39 Immediate switch to Eco mode (via mode menu)57© 2017 Infinite Electronics, Inc., All Rights Reserved.
