Diagnostics (A12)
Here is a brief description of each diagnostic test:
A12U1 Display Test – Lights up all display segments and counts down from 666666 to

Editing the output string (A14)
The indicator contains one customizable output string. Output strings are created by assigning a
hexadecimal value to a decimal address. The addresses start at 00 and end at 94. The HEX
value can be a printable ASCII character, or a manufacturer defined print command. All output
strings must end with an End of String (EOS) character.
The programming format is AA__vv where AA is the address (00 to 94) and vv is the programming
value.
