Readout Key Timing - Accurate Technology ProScale 950 Series Operation

Readout Key Timing

Several keys on the Readouts have multiple functions.
How long a key is pressed is important since the function executed when a key
is pushed is dependent on how long it is pressed.
This manual uses the term "Momentarily" to describe a key press of less than .8
seconds, and "Press and Hold" to describe a key press of longer than 1
second.
How long a key is pressed?
When is the key function executed?
For Momentary key press operations, the Function is executed when the key is
released.
For Press & Hold operations, the Function is executed after the key has been
pressed and held for the prescribed amount of time.
See the chart below for a summary of the functions performed by the keys below:
