The SCAN key switches the SCAN measurement mode on and off.

Refer to page 17 for an explanation of the SCAN measurement mode.

The DOWN arrow key has three functions. When the PX-7 is in the

CAL mode, this key is used to decrease numeric values on the display. An

auto-repeat function is built in, so that when the key is held down, numeric

values will decrement at an increasing rate. When the PX-7 is not in

calibration mode, the DOWN arrow key switches the display backlight

between three available settings. OFF will be displayed when the backlight

is switched off. AUTO will be displayed when the backlight is set to

automatic mode, and ON will be displayed when the backlight is set to stay

on. In the AUTO setting, the backlight will illuminate while the PX-7 is

making a measurement and turn off after several seconds to conserve

battery life. Finally, if the DOWN arrow key is pressed and held down while

powering the PX-7 on, a LOC mode will be toggled on/off.
