Key Press Description
The GlassMaster LT has a 7 segment LED display. This sometimes requires creative ways for representing let- ters. For example the number “5” is also used to represent the letter “S”. See page 11 for a complete list of all the display messages along with a description of their meaning.
Your GlassMaster LT has 3 buttons that are used to access all of the features and settings available. Below is a description of the basic functions of the various key presses.
