POWER
The VT does not have an ON/OFF power button. It is connected to the
vehicle’s ignition wires and powers ON when the ignition switch is turned
on.
NOTE: On initial powerup, applications
transfer data to the terminal.
After the upload is complete,
any detected errors should be
acknowledged by pressing the
alarm cancel button. The Main
Work screen should then
display.
The DICKEY-john logo will display. After approximately 40 seconds, the
Main Work screen displays. If errors are detected (e.g., failed sensors,
incorrect configuration, etc.) an audible alarm and the appropriate alarm
code displays.
For a list of alarms, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING AND ALARMS
section of the operator’s manual of the device. Alarms can be silenced by
pressing the Escape (ESC) key for approximately two seconds.
NAVIGATION
User information is displayed on the VT by graphical representation and
text. Navigation to other screens can be done via the touch screen or the
software-defined softkey buttons located on the right side of the display.
The function of the item selected on the touch screen and the softkeys are
defined by the current display, operational mode, and system configuration.
In the instances that system options exceed the available space on the VT,
the Next Page button will display in the last button position. Each time this
button is displayed, additional options are available on another set of
softkeys. Pressing the Next Page button will display the additional system
options.

knob, or a combination of all methods.
On screens where data entry is allowed:
– most selectable items will be shown by either a different color
background or a border.
