Button Operation
The AX2500/2850 has three buttons: Set, Program and Reset. These buttons are not
needed for normal operation, as the controller is immediately operational upon power up.
The Reset button will restart the controller. This button is recessed and you will need a
paper clip to press it. Reset is also accomplished by turning the controller’s power Off and
back On.
The Set and Program buttons have the following functions depending how and when they
are pressed:
