PROGRAMMING THE M5000
The M5000 amplifier is pre-programmed from the factory . No additional programming is necessary, however, for special
features, the meter can be programmed for specific requirements .
Function Buttons
All M5000 programming is accomplished using the three function buttons located on the
front of the amplifier . Screen navigation and digit and parameter selection is performed by a
combination of these three buttons .
The up-arrow button allows scrolling through seven menu screens . This button is also used to advance numerical digits to
change values, such as frequency, period, and EP level as well as toggle on-off conditions and flow directions .
The right-arrow button allows digit selection from left to right and allows selecting either the top row of the display or the
bottom row (the bottom row is active when flashing) .
The EXIT SAVE button allows the saving of changed values and conditions, toggling between the upper and lower display
lines and returning to a previous menu .
Display
The top row displays seven digits for specific values on each screen and the bottom row
displays meter and register condition icons and current screen descriptions .
