Code Selection
Code selection is done with eight keys (0 – 7) providing 4,096 active identification codes.
Pushing one of these keys begins the code selection sequence. Digits that are not yet entered
appear as dashes. The new code is activated when the fourth digit is entered. Pressing the CLR
Key moves the cursor back to the previous digit. Pressing the CLR Key when the cursor is on
the first digit of the code, or pressing the CRSR Key during code entry, removes the cursor and
cancels data entry, restoring the previous code. Press the CLR Key up to five seconds after code
entry is complete to return the cursor to the fourth digit. The numbers 8 and 9 are not used for
code entry, only for entering a Count Down time, and contrast and display brightness.
