Custom profiles are also available, but it is recommended you become
familiar with the preset SAIL or POWER profile before attempting to set up
a custom profile.
If you want to use a different operating profile, or edit a custom profile,
refer to Section 7, System Setup.

similar, the operating procedures for both are given in this chapter.
Detailed instructions specific to the Graphic and Data Displays are given
in Section 2, Chapters 2 and 3, respectively.
The basic operating modes are used by both instrument types, and the
button presses required to change modes, are summarized in Figure 1-4 .
All button presses are momentary unless otherwise stated.
