The instrument has three push buttons;
“Up,” “Down,” and “Mode” buttons; that
control the modes of operation. The
“Mode” button is used to change the
function of the LCD display and to access
submenus and adjustable settings. The
“Down” and “Up” buttons are used to
modify the settings.
In normal operation mode, pressing the
“Mode” button for a short period of time
causes the display to cycle between the

each setting selection, pressing the
“Down” and “Up” buttons causes the
affected setting to change. The
microprocessor will automatically record
the new settings as you adjust them.
When in a setting menu, pressing and
holding the “Mode” button returns to the
main function.
