To change what item is being displayed press the leftmost button. This will cycle through the list of items (Load
A, Peak A, Vall A, Load B, Peak B, Vall B, Pos, Vel, and Limits, optionally Avg A, Avg B).
The rightmost button will change the units that are being used. Repeated presses of this button will cycle
through the list of units available for the currently displayed item. For example, with Load showing you would
see Lb, kg, N, PSI, MPa, Klb, kN, t, mV/V, g and then back to Lb.
The table below summarizes the options.
All of these measurements are acquired by the Model 4215-HS at all times. The display just selects which par
