A. KEYPAD AND DISPLAY
A.1 Keypad Description
FDX is operated with four buttons that control all functions. Practice using the
buttons to gain familiarity with gage operation prior to actual use.
For simplicity, each control button has two context sensitive functions.
The function of each button depends on how the gage is powered on.
See Section B. Menu Control of gage setup and configuration details
See Section C. Gage Operation for all operating modes
If there is no display or if low battery is indicated, the battery may be low or not securely
connected. Connecting the AC Power Adapter or USB Cable confirms dead battery.
