IX. DISPLAY AND KEYBOARD DESCRIPTIONS. 

 

DISPLAY 
 
The display is a two-row alphanumeric LCD with backlighting for easy viewing.  It is used to 
set all the parameters of the units.  The two push buttons enable the user  to set a 
temperature, to set a timer, and to calibrate the temperature against a local standard. 
Figure 1 below describes the screens for different modes of operation.
