LCD-8 MAGNETIC REED SWITCH
The LCD-8 uses an internal magnetic reed switch (Figure 4),
where the user swipes a magnet (Figure 5) externally across this
switch (Figure 6) to start a hold-on cycle or to terminate a
running hold-on cycle. The magnetic switch determines
whether the user’s action “swipes” or “holds” the magnet
during LCD-8 configuration.
