6 — PROGRAMMER OPERATION

Some parameters on some controllers have dependencies on other param-

eters. This means that the available settings for one parameter may be dependent
on the limits of another parameter. If you attempt to set a parameter (A) outside
the limits imposed by another parameter (B), a message will be displayed
indicating that parameter A is dependent on parameter B.

The Program Menu is presented at the end of this section.

NOTE

: Some items

may not be available on all models.

In the

Test

mode, accessed by pressing the

TEST

key, real-time information is

displayed about the status of the inputs, outputs, and controller temperature. For
example, when the status of the forward switch is displayed, it should read
“On/Off/On/Off/On/Off” as the switch is repeatedly turned on and off. In the
Test mode, the item of interest does not need to be the top item on the list; it only
needs to be among the four items visible in the window. The Test mode is useful
for checking out the operation of the controller during initial installation, and
also for troubleshooting should problems occur.

The

INFO

key, when used in the Test mode, causes additional informa-

tion to be displayed about the selected item (top line in the window).

The Test Menu is presented at the end of this section.

NOTE

: Some items may

not be available on all models.

In the

Diagnostics

mode, accessed by pressing the

DIAGNOSTICS

key, currently

active faults detected by the controller are displayed.

The

INFO

key, when used in the Diagnostics mode, causes additional

information to be displayed about the selected item.

A list of the abbreviations used in the Diagnostics display is included at the

end of this section.

The

Special Program

mode allows you to perform a variety of tasks, most of

which are self-explanatory. Through the Special Program Menu, you can revert
to earlier settings, save controller settings into the programmer memory, load the
controller settings from the programmer into a controller, clear the controller’s
diagnostic history, adjust the contrast of the programmer’s LCD display, select
the language to be displayed by the programmer, and display basic information
(model number, etc.) about the controller and the programmer.

To access the Special Program mode, ﬁrst press the

INFO

key. Then,

while continuing to hold the

INFO

key, press the

PROGRAM

key. The LED

on the

PROGRAM

key will light, just as when the programmer is in Program mode.
