Note
It is important to make sure that the last section that you enter
contains the strap position. If an “
Insufficient Length Entered
”
message is displayed when you press the
M
key to exit the Multi-
gauge Entry screen, it is because the sum of the entered lengths is
shorter than the Distance-to-Strap length measured by the tester. In
this situation, first verify that the entered
Length
and
Gauge
information is correct. If so, increase the length you entered for the
last section. This change does not affect the accuracy of the results
but allows agreement between the entries and measurements.
