  • Page 4: Run Mode

    ™ DF-G1 Expert Dual Display Fiber Amplifier RUN/PRG/ADJ Mode Switch The RUN/PRG/ADJ mode switch puts the sensor in RUN, PRG (Program), or ADJ (Adjust) mode. RUN mode allows the sensor to operate normally and prevents unintentional programming changes via the +/SET/- button. PRG mode allows the sensor to be programmed through the display driven programming menu (see Program Mode below).
