Display and Indicators
The display is a 4-digit, 7-segment LED. Run mode is the primary view displayed.
For JRET, JBGS, 2-pt, BGS, FGS, and DYN TEACH modes, the display shows the current distance to the target in centimeters. For Dual
TEACH mode, the display shows the percentage matched to the taught reference surface. A display value of
has not been taught.
