Selecting the Digital Meters icon brings
up the Digital Meters window to display
several channels in numeric format. To
activate the display, select the
button on the left side of the toolbar (or
Start All Indicators in the pull-down
menu or in the toolbar). You can vary the
number of channels (32 max) displayed
by selecting the input box at the end of
the toolbar. The button (next to

display for convenient reading. The
pushpin icon in the center of the toolbar
locks this window on top of other
