@-mode Extrapolation Slope (n)

This option enables you to define the slope of the line along which @-mode extrapolations

will be calculated. Generally speaking, houses use a value of 0.65 and duct-work uses a value of
0.60. Acceptable values are 0.5 to 1.0. When enabled, the @-mode feature enables you to predict
what your parameter would be at a given pressure, without the need to physically reach that
pressure. For example, you can the @-mode feature to predict the flow that would be required
to pressurize a building to 50 Pa, even if the equipment in use is only capable of achieving a
pressure of 35 Pa.

Automatic Power Down

The Power Down feature (shown next) is designed to maximize battery power by enabling your

DM-2A mark II gauge to automatically turn itself off when it has been inactive for set time period.
This feature is set in hours within a range between 0 and 255 hours. Applying a 0 value will
disable the Power Down feature, meaning the DM-2 will never automatically shut down.
