After the exposure ends, the measured exposure for the scan is displayed. If an overrange occurs, an
error message will be displayed (see Section 4.3--Error Messages--for more information). When the
exposure ends, the NERO mAx auto-resets before the next exposure while retaining the measured

ready for the next exposure. Press the RESET softkey (4) to zero the display or press the mode key to
exit. Do not press the RESET softkey when the beam is on. Inaccurate readings will result.
