The Keypad and Display
The Mini-Seis III Pro™ has various control keys that help to simplify operation. It also has an
easy to read backlit graphics display.
ON Key
Pressing the ON key turns on the unit. The Pro can be activated without any sensors
attached. Unlike the older Mini-Seis, attaching or removing the sensors does not
automatically activate or deactivate the unit.
OFF key
Pressing the OFF key turns off the unit as long as it is not activated in histogram mode.
Unplugging the sensors will not turn the instrument off. The unit features a forced hardware
shutdown for cases where it might become unresponsive. Holding down the key for a few
seconds will force the instrument off regardless of any operation in progress. Please be
aware that doing this may cause data corruption.
ENTER Key
The ENTER key is primarily used to accept entries. If the unit is on, but the display is blank,
pressing ENTER or any other key will activate the display.
Up/Down Arrow Keys
These keys move the highlight from field to field in the displayed screen.
Left/Right Arrow Keys
When a modifiable field is highlighted, these keys change the value.
Soft Keys
Soft keys are available below the display. The functions of these keys will vary depending
on the displayed screen. A common soft key is labeled Next. Using this key advances to the
next screen. The Home soft key returns to the Main Screen. The Back soft key returns to the
previous screen viewed.
Display
The graphics display is backlit and easy to read.
Displayed Fields
Some of the data displayed on the screen can be modified. These fields will generally have
a label followed by a value. Other fields are used to link to additional screens. These fields
are usually contained by hyphen characters, for example -Setup Menus-.
