OPERATOR INTERFACE PRIMER
The remainder of the CX-1200 setup procedure involves setting control parameter values through the operator interface,
and then verifying system behavior using monitor parameters. The basic procedure for changing a control parameter is
first to locate the relevant parameter using the Menu, Page Up/Down and Parameter Up/Down keys, and then to modify
the parameter value using the Numeric or Scroll Up/Down keys.
The sequence for locating a control or monitor parameter using the menu driven interface is:
•
Press the Menu key repeatedly until the Main Menu is displayed.
•
Press the Parameter Up/Down keys to select the sub menu.
•
Press the Enter key.
•
Press the Parameter Up/Down keys to select the parameter category.
•
Press the Enter key.
•
Press the Page Up/Down keys, if necessary, to select the page.
•
Press the Parameter Up/Down keys to select the parameter.
An alternative method for locating a parameter is through the code select procedure:
•
Press the Code key to activate the code select line.
•
Enter the numeric parameter code.
•
Press the Enter key.
•
The selected parameter is now displayed on the Status screen.
For each control parameter (CP) and monitor parameter (MP) required, the menu path will be shown as:
Go to MAIN MENU\SETUP\SYSTEM SETUP\PAGE 2.
Enter RUN Mode {CP-202} = 1 = Direct Mode.
The menu selections are separated by back slashes, “\”. The parameter code is
shown in the brackets,{}.
NOTE:
The Help key accesses the Help screen and gives you a brief description of the parameter or subject that is
highlighted (active) on the screen. Press the Help key again to return to the previous screen.
