Single Keypad Functions 
 
ON/OFF (O) Key 
The ON/OFF key, represented by the standard ON/OFF symbol, 
turns the M1 ON or OFF (note: the ON/OFF key must be held until 
the display turns on or off). Upon power on, the M1 will perform a 
self test, display all segments for approximately 1-2 seconds, then 
go into the normal pressure measure mode using the last pressure 
units selected. 
 
To view the calibrated accuracy and firmware revision, press and 
hold the ON/OFF key for approximately 2 seconds upon power on. 
The display will alternate between the calibrated accuracy and 
firmware revision for as long as the ON/OFF key is held. 
BACKLIGHT (B) Key 
The BACKLIGHT key, represented by the standard light-bulb 
symbol, turns the green display backlight on and off. The backlight 
will remain on for approximately 20 seconds if not manually 
turned off. To temporarily override the auto shut off feature, press 
and hold the BACKLIGHT key for approximately 2 seconds (until 
the backlight turns on-off-on).

This key selects the functional mode of the M1. Detailed 
instructions are provided on the back of the unit and in the 
subsequent sections.
