Quick Menu

The Quick Menu key initiates HART communications and then displays ten (10) HART menu

enable the user to arrive quickly at desired functions. Typical Quick Menu options include: Main
Menu, Config Menu, Rerange, Basic Info, Construction Materials, Display, Sensors, Signal
Conditioning, Self Test. Quick Menu is disabled while critical HART operations are in process.

Configs, and Create Configs functions for all models. For Documenting operations this key also
provides documenting functions used with the Meriam Device Management System software. Access

Display Contrast

This key allows the user to adjust the contrast of the LCD display for ambient lighting and user
preferences at any time and in any operating mode. Pressing and holding this key cycles through all

available contrast settings. After adjusting Display Contrast, wait at least five (5) seconds before

turning unit off to insure storage of new contrast setting. Ambient temperature compensation is
included.

Backlight

This key toggles the backlight feature between Off / Low intensity / High intensity to illuminate the
display for ambient light conditions. Battery life is impacted by use of the backlight feature; High
intensity is the most aggressive. An automatic shut-off timer is available by pressing the Cfg soft key

from the main menu.


Alphanumeric / Symbol Entry

The alphanumeric keys have the heaviest population on the keyboard and are the method of entering
data into the 4150 / 4150X. Each display type has a default alpha or numeric / symbol entry mode
based on the most likely used mode for the display’s function. Pressing the ALPHA LOCK ( )
key activates the other entry mode for alphanumeric keys. Pressing the SHIFT key ( ) converts the
next key stroke to the inactive entry mode and then automatically reverts back to the active mode. The
letter “A” in the display header line indicates the alpha input is active while a # sign in the display
header indicates the numeric / symbol input is active.

(Shift)

The key is used to activate the secondary functions of the Unit’s dual function keys for the next
keystroke only. When the Shift key is active, an up arrow

u

is displayed at the top of the display to

the left of the battery power (or AC wall plug) symbol is also used to activate the Page Up and
