Testing the Display

The display is an LCD comprised of a series of characters and segments for
providing the user with a variety of information. To test the LCD and all of its
segments proceed as follows:
1. Set the rotary switch to OFF.
2. Depress  and turn the function switch to B.
3. While continuing to depress , verify that the lit display segments match
those shown in Figure 3.

Testing the Backlight

The display backlight is a toggle function controlled by the H key. Each press of
H causes the backlight to change states, for example, on to off or off to on. To
test the backlight, press H twice to verify that the toggle function is working.
Turn the backlight off.

Testing the Keypad

The keypad consists of keys located above the rotary function switch. To test the
keypad, turn the rotary switch to B and momentarily press each of the seven
keys. Each press of an operational key will cause the Meter to beep. No beep in
response to a key press indicates a defective keypad.
Reset the Meter by turning the rotary switch to OFF and, then, to any other
position.
