Enter the desired commanded value (use caution to ensure the value you enter is within the limits of your system), and press the enter key to execute the command. The Man button will now turn blue indicating the device is in a manual state. The controlled output value will remain in the text entry box and be displayed on the main page near the device if appropriate.
