LAST FUNCTION MEMORY

• This unit is equipped with a last function memory which stores the input and output setting conditions as they
were immediately before the power is switched off.
This function eliminates the need to perform complicated resettings when the power is switched on.
• The unit is also equipped with a back-up memory. This function provides approximately one week of memory
storage when the main unit's power switch is off and with the power cord disconnected.

• If the microprocessor has been reset, all the
button settings are reset to the default values
(the values set upon shipment from the factory).
