Deleting a previous measurement record
The ProScale General Purpose display has the capability of transmitting a
“delete previous measurement” signal by pressing the F2 key on the digital
display. This causes the text “DEL” to be displayed instead of a position. This
can be used to indicate the previously recorded entry in a file needs to be
removed.
