press of the button will change the height by 1/8".
Holding the button down will rapidly change the
values. Select the rise angle by pressing the button
next to "A". Select the angle value as above. The
angle changes in 1/2° increments.
Select the horizontal bend angles by pressing the
button next to "H1" and adjusting the value as
above; repeat for the "H2" button. The horizontal
angles are as viewed from directly above. Refer
to the "Top Views of Bends" illustration below for
examples. Positive angles represent bends to the
right. Negative angles represent bends to the left.
Select the length by pressing the button next to "L".
Select the value for "L" as above. All values for "L"
are to the centerline of the conduit. The length is
defined as where the sight lines of the first and third
legs intersect each other to the end of the conduit,
as viewed from directly above. Refer to the following
illustrations for examples.
