Use caution grounding the shield (drain) at
the transducer end of the interface cable as
ground loops may be formed, degrading

cables, but if you do so, make sure the metal sleeve is well connected to the connector ground to
provide proper shielding to the signal cables.

menu has a escape button on it, the escape button must be pressed to exit the menu.
