2-10 Initial Setup
Using the Screen and Keypad
The essential features for operating the TransPort are the screen
and keypad. Although these features are common on portable
instruments, the PT878GC design offers unique features to
simplify and speed operation.
Screen
The primary function of the screen is to display information in
order for you to accurately and easily take measurements. The
TransPort screen consists of seven parts (see Figure 2-6 below).

The top line of the screen is the status bar, which normally
displays the time, date and current site. However, when you press
[MENU] (the menu key), the Menu Bar replaces the status bar.
