Annunciators
There are display annunciators that appear as necessary to indicate additional infor-
mation. Display annunciators are visible when their associated feature is enabled.
4.4 Display Setup
This section describes how to set up the field units and display contrast.
4.4.1 Field Units
Parameter
The field units parameter determines which units are used to display the measured
field, maximum field, and relative field readings.
Menu navigation:
Units (gauss, tesla, oersted, or ampere/meter)
Default: gauss
Interface command: UNIT
4.4.2 Display Contrast
The front panel LCD display contrast can be adjusted for optimal viewing. The default
should work well in most standard room temperature environments, but deviations
from room temperature and extreme viewing angles can cause the display contrast
to require adjustment for optimal viewing.

tor on the display will immediately change to DC or RMS, depending on what mea-
surement mode has been selected.
