Here is how to change the parameter from 1 to 60 pulses
per revolution ("p/r"):

1. Set unit to mode 1.

(factory setting)

2. Press mode key.

3. Press shift key to select the

desired digit.

4. Press the increment key 6 times.

5. Press shift key.

6. Press the increment key 9 times.

Parameter 1 is now set for 60p/r.

1. Press mode key.

2. Press shift key to select position

Parameter settings are now complete.

Press data set key to begin counting.

3. Press the increment key to select
