P.B. Mode is displayed on the left side of line 3. The P.B. Mode information displayed is made up of two parts separated by a blank

Time (in seconds). To change the Push-button Interrupt Time, repeatedly press the Next key until the selection arrows are to the right
of line 3. Once line 3 has been selected, press and release the Clear key the right two digits will now be blank indicating the unit is

a Push-button Interrupt Time of 10 seconds is desired 10 would be entered on the keypad. If only one number is entered for a time,
pressing the Next key will act as an enter key and the leading zero will displayed on the LCD. As the numbers are entered they are
shown on the display, indicating the numbers are accepted and entered into memory. If a mistake is made while entering the time,
press and release the Clear key and reenter the time again.
While line 3 is selected the Up arrow and Down arrow keys can be used to switch between the three Push-button Modes.
