Q: How Do I Reset Min/Max?
To reset the Min/Max (or L-H) readings, simply change the units (to any other unit
setting) by rotating the Range knob and then set back to your desired units.
Q: How Do I Hold or Freeze the Display?
Press the Hold/Zero button for less than 2 seconds. The display will freeze,

operation, press the Hold/Zero button again.
Q: How Can I Estimate if the Pressure May Be Too Unsteady for Accurate
Measurement?
If the measured pressures fluctuate more than 10%, an indicator
T
will appear at
the top RHS of the display. This may suggest that another measurement location
may be necessary.
Measuring Speed
The PBM-E uses differential pressure probes (Pitot or S type) to take speed
measurements.
