This button is the measure button and directs the meter to

measure your sample when in the Auto Read mode.

This button will access he setup screens for the measuring

mode that you are currently using. It can also be used to

access the system setup screen that allows you to set

parameters that are not related to measurements such as

the times and the date.

The print button sends information to the output device

that you have connected to your CyberScan meter. The

output device can be a printer, data logger or a computer.

In addition to this, touching the print button will also send

data to the data storage center of the meter if a sample ID

has been assigned to your sample.

The arrow keys on the screen move the cursor up and

down in order to highlight parameters that you would like to

review or edit.

The edit button appears on the setup screens. After you

have highlighted a parameter that you would like to change,

The delete button appears on the “View Stored Data”

screens. This button allows you to erase the data from the

memory of the meter.

The prev button appears on the Data Screens when the

data stored in the meter’s memory has been accessed. It

allows you to scroll through data points sorted and stored

prior to the current data point displayed.

The next button appears on the Data Screens when the

data stored in the meter’s memory has been accessed. It

allows you to scroll through data points sorted and stored
