3.8.3 Storing and recalling readings
Tables 3-33 through 3-35 detail the sequence of steps for the
various modes of buffer control. The tables assume the
buffer is configured as explained in paragraph 3.8.2.
Note that during data storage, the reading number on the
bottom line of the display is one ahead of the reading on the
top line.
There are “multiple displays” available when recalling
buffered readings. These are explained in paragraph 3.8.4.
