To display the Tap Up/Down information, which is displayed on line 1 of screen 2, repeatedly press the Set Up key
until the text
Tap
is displayed on the left side of line 1. The tap information displayed is made up of two parts separated by a
blank space. The left most digit shows the Tap count or the number of times the Tap push-button was pressed. The two right
hand digits show the programmable time (0 to 99 thousandths of a second) to be subtracted from or added to the delay time
every time the Tap push-button is pressed. To change the Tap amount, repeatedly press the Next key until the selection arrows
are to the right of line 1. Once line 1 has been selected, press and release the Clear key the right two digits will now be blank
indicating the unit is ready to accept the new time. Now using numerical keys enter the new time, leading zeros do not have to
be entered. For example if 20 thousandths for a Tap amount were desired 20 would be entered on the keypad. If only one
number is entered for a time, pressing the Next key will act as an enter key and the leading zero will displayed on the LCD.
As the numbers are entered they are shown on the display, indicating the numbers are accepted and entered into memory. If a
mistake is made while entering the time, press and release the Clear key and reenter the time again.
If the Mega 350/450 is in Tap Down mode, the word “Down” will be displayed above the two right digits. If the
Mega 350/450 is in Tap Up mode, the area above the two right digits will be blank. While line 1 is selected the Up arrow and
Down arrow keys can be used to switch between the Tap up mode and Tap Down mode.

blank space. The left most digit indicates which button mode the Mega 350/450 is in and the right two digits represent the
Push-button Interrupt Time (in seconds). To change the Push-button Interrupt Time, repeatedly press the Next key until the
selection arrows are to the right of line 3. Once line 3 has been selected, press and release the Clear key the right two digits
will now be blank indicating the unit is ready to accept the new time. Now using numerical keys enter the new time, leading
zeros do not have to be entered. For example if 10 seconds for a Push-button Interrupt Time were desired 10 would be entered
on the keypad. If only one number is entered for a time, pressing the Next key will act as an enter key and the leading zero
will displayed on the LCD. As the numbers are entered they are shown on the display, indicating the numbers are accepted
