LCD Display
The LCD display is located at the top of the control PCB. It indicates the current gas
reading and displays messages and parameters in the Beacon 110’s operating modes.
Contrast Potentiometer
The contrast potentiometer is located to the right of the LCD display. It is used to adjust
the contrast of the LCD. If the background of the LCD appears so dark that the characters
are not visible or if the characters are too dim, turn the adjustment screw on the
potentiometer clockwise or counterclockwise until the desired visibility is obtained.
Control Buttons
The Beacon 110 includes three push button switches that allow you to enter the Beacon
110’s operating modes, navigate through the modes, update settings, and save changes
to the settings. The push button switches are located along the bottom edge of the control
PCB (see Figure 2). The UP/YES button is on the left, the DOWN/NO button is in the
middle, and the ENTER button is on the right.
