KEYPAD FUNCTIONS The PL400 Patient Lift Scale Indicator has a membrane keypad containing three (3) keys. The keypad is shown in Figure No. 3. The following describes the use of each key: The membrane keyboard is not to be operated with pointed objects (pencils, pens, fingernail, etc.). Damage to the keypad from this practice will NOT be covered under warranty. ON ZERO Figure No. 3 Pressing this key will apply power to the instrument and turn on the indicator display.
