Test -
Runs a display and DSP self test routine. When successfully completed, the unit
displays Pass and returns to normal operation. Otherwise an error message

for more specific information.

Disables the 7 segment LED display. When set to Off, the display turns off 4
seconds after the last button press. A dot in the lower right hand corner of the

operating several units in a multichannel set up.
IMPORTANT!
Each unit in the daisy chain MUST be set to a different RS-232 address.
