memory is on will also output the location and save the current reading. If 999
readings are stored, the next reading will display ‘FULL’ and disable memory.
(see view mode, below, for more information)

MDE
Displays the current mode for 1 second. Pressing MDE again while the mode is
displayed will change the mode. Any other button will return to sample mode.

ENG
Displays the current units for 1 second. Pressing ENG again while the units are
displayed will change the units. Any other button will return to sample mode.

CLR
Clears the current peak or zeros the transducer if no peak is current. If
memory is on will erase the reading at the current location. (see view mode,
below)

ENT+CLR
Turns off the display. Press any key to turn on the display.

MDE+ENG
Displays the program menu. See below.

ENT+ENG
Press ENT to send all the readings in memory to the serial port or any other
button to cancel. The location will be displayed as the reading is sent. Memory
must be on for this command to work.

Press ENT to clear all the readings from memory or any other button to cancel.
The location will be displayed as the reading is erased. Memory must be on for
this command to work.
