The LCD (display)

The seven-segment LCD (display) shows the value and/or diagnostic information. It is mainly for numeric data, but there are also a number of indicators which use alphabetic characters. A list of these LCD displays, together with the associated menu items, is shown in Appendix B: LCD display examples on page 74.

The LCD will hold information for a long time even when not refreshed (for example, if there is a loss of power). The heartbeat indicator blinks continuously whenever the device is working. A still heartbeat signals that the device has stopped working.
