PART 3 OPERATION: CONFIGURATION MODE 3.1 Introduction The instrument has two different modes of operation. The first, Run Mode, is used to display values for the Process Variable, and to display or clear Peak and Valley values. The other mode, Menu Configuration Mode, is used to navigate through the menu options and configure the controller. Part 3 of this manual will explain the Menu Configuration Mode. For your instrument to operate properly, the user must first "program" or configure the menu
