The ALRM key has two functions. By holding down the ALRM key

when powering up the MMX-6, the audible beeper will be turned on or off

accordingly. After the unit has been turned on, pressing the ALRM key will

toggle the alarm mode to the on/off positions and allow the user to enter a

nominal thickness value. Refer to page 19 for details on how to use the

alarm feature.

The DUAL-MULTI key is used to toggle pulse-echo ( flaw & pit

detection ), and echo-echo ( eliminate paint & coating thickness ). This

enables the user to very conveniently switch between modes depending on

application requirements. Refer to page 20 for a complete explanation of

this feature.

The SEND key is used to send the currently displayed thickness

measurement to an external storage device via the MMX-6's RS232 port.

Refer to page 22 for an explanation of how to use this feature.
