P6170, P8170 & P4170 Controllers - Operator Mode

This is the mode used during normal operation of the instrument. It can be accessed from
Select Mode, and is the usual mode entered at power-up. The available displays are
dependent upon whether Dual or Remote Setpoint modes are being used, whether Setpoint
Ramping is enabled and the setting of the Display Strategy parameter in Configuration Mode.

WARNING:

IN NORMAL OPERATION, THE OPERATOR MUST NOT REMOVE THE CONTROLLER FROM
ITS HOUSING OR HAVE UNRESTRICTED ACCESS TO THE REAR TERMINALS, AS THIS
WOULD PROVIDE POTENTIAL CONTACT WITH HAZARDOUS LIVE PARTS.

CAUTION:

Set all Configuration Mode parameters and Set Up Mode parameters as required
before starting normal operations.

– Extended Operator Mode

Using the PC configuration software, it is possible to extend the available Operator Mode
displays by adding parameters from Setup Mode. When an extended Operator Mode is
configured the additional parameters are available after the standard operator displays.

Navigating in Operator Mode

Press to move between displays.

When a display value can be adjusted, use or to change its value.

Note:

The operator can freely view the parameters in this mode, but alteration depends on the
settings in the Configuration and Set Up Modes. All parameters in Display strategy 6 are
read only, and can only be adjusted via Setup mode.
