1.3.3 Entering numbers:
Numbers are entered as follows:
- The old numerical value will be displayed first.
- Should the key be pressed before any other key has been activated, the program cycle will be set back
without correcting the old value.
- Pressing the key validates the input value and the next menu is displayed.
- All values to be input are selected in the same way as for a calculator. Plus and minus signs can be changed at any
time by pressing the +/- key.
- The number of digits on the left hand side of the decimal point is max. 4 for mm and max. 2 for inch. The number of
digits after the decimal point depends on the resolution.
- An input value can be started directly with the decimal point.
- If an incorrect value is selected, press the key and start again.
