The keys on the front panel perform multiple functions. Their function differs depending on whether the gauge
is in Measure Mode or Program Mode.

Measure Mode is the normal operating mode for measuring and displaying pressure. This mode is

always default after power-up or reset.

Program Mode is used to configure the various options of the gauge. This mode is denoted by a

PRGM indicator on the display.
