•
Set the decimal point location for the M value.
•
Set the multiplier for the M value (m, x1, k, M).
•
Set the B value (sign and number).
•
Set the decimal point location for the B value.
•
Set the multiplier for the B value (m, x1, k, M).
Use
G, D, H and J to cycle through the selections at each step. Then press

allowed. Press
allowed. Press
E to accept the displayed value.
Set the interval to 0:00:00 for continuous scanning. If you set the interval to a value
shorter than the time required to measure all channels, scanning effectively becomes
continuous.
