Definition
Dual in-line package switch
A display function does just that, it displays the

just a gauge. No changes can be made to the function
using the display-function screen (but the displayed
values can often be changed by accessing other
menus and functions).
The LED screen that shows the detector's Main Menu
and related sub-menus.

Functions are accessed using the detector's Main Menu
and are the software routines that control everything
the detector does. Most have parameters that can be
set by you, the user.
Parameter you set infrequently and which affect how
data is shown in the display panel. Global parameters
include the language shown in the Main Menu, the
preferred units of measure (meters/feet) used by the
detector, and whether Help Text is shown in the Main
Menu.
