is determined by the settings in the RL4 Setup screen on the main MCX-32 controller. See

8.2.1 Channel Details Screen
Detailed information for any sensor can be found on the Channel Details Screen. This screen does not allow

screen can be viewed by selecting the channel from the Main Display. After selecting the appropriate channel,
the Details Screen will be brought up on the display.
Figure 43 Remote Channel 1 Details Screen
The Channel Details Screen is used to view or change information directly related to a sensor. The Channel
Details Screen on the remote is different from the controller’s Channel Details Screen. The Remote Details
Screen does not provide information on the alarm set points or the bank of alarms associated with the channel.
The remote Channel Details Screen displays the sensors current concentration, the current sensor condition,
the range of the sensor, the gas type, the sensor type, and if the channel is on or off. Some of these fields are
changeable on this screen including the Channel Description (which is viewed on the Main Screen). The fields
are: Channel Description, Range, Gas Type, and Sensor Type. The information on each channel details screen
must match the information in the controller.
8.2.2 System Configuration Screen
Pressing the ‘MENU’ button will take the operator to a screen with ‘Please Enter Password’ prompt. The
controller incorporates password protection to keep un-authorized personnel from inadvertently changing the
controller’s configuration. Selecting the prompt will display an on screen keyboard that the operator should
use to enter the password.
NOTE: Changing the controller’s configuration should only be performed by authorized
personnel. Improper settings in the controller’s configuration can cause the controller to
operate incorrectly.
The default password is ‘abcd’ (lower case). The password can be changed from the System Configuration
Screen. When the password has been entered the screen will change to the System Configuration Screen.
