turn  off  after  30  minutes  of  inactivity  to  save 

battery life. If AUTO OFF is OFF the unit will stay 

on until the POWER SWITCH is moved to the off 

position.

SHOW mV  - If SHOW mV is ON the mV value 

corresponding  to  the  sourced  or  measured 

temperature is displayed.

temperature  measured  by  the  PIECAL  422  will 

be displayed.
