menu (either
the

verification).
When
you select this
softkey, the program displays the test menu
and lets you
output
all
the test
data ([ALL DATA]), output
the data for one test
([SELECT]), or
return to the
UTILITIES
menu
([EXIT]).
The
[SELECT]
softkey outputs the data for the test
at which the cursor points. Use the keyboards
UP or DOWN arrow keys or the front panel knob on the keyboard to position the cursor.
