PROGRAMMING GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Programming the Legend unit is done through the front panel keypad, which
allows the user to enter into Main Menus, Sub-Menus, and Edit Menus. The
English language prompts, the flashing parameters values, and the front panel
keypad aids the operator during programming.
Although the unit has been programmed at the factory, the parameters will
generally have to be changed to suit the desired application. From the main
display loop, the main menus are entered by pressing the enter (ENT) key when
program mode is displayed. This allows the user to then enter a sub-menu from a
main menu where parameter values can be viewed. From the sub-menu the
operator can advance into an edit menu. An edit menu is where a parameter value
is changed and entered. There are two types of edit menus:
1. A Choice Edit Menu allows the operator to scroll through options by
repeatedly pressing the down arrow key until the desired option is viewed. The
option is selected by pressing the ENT (enter) key, which returns the operator
to the previous sub-menu. The operator can exit the edit menu WITHOUT
making a selection by pressing the
2. In a Numerical Value Edit Menu, the operator uses the left or right arrow key to
select a digit. The up and down arrow keys change the digit’s value. The PRS
key toggles the left most digit between a minus (-) and a zero for plus (+), for
that numeric value. When the appropriate numerical value is selected, it is
entered by pressing the ENT (enter) key, which returns the operator to the
previous sub-menu.
All parameter values that are changed in the Programming Loop are saved
when exiting the loop. The operator can exit the programming loop from any of
the main menus by pressing the
nonvolatile memory. The unit will return to the indication display that was last
viewed. Shown is the Main Display Loop and the Main Programming menus of
the Four Preset Batch Legend (LGB) unit.
All of the flowcharts that follow which have slanted characters that will be
flashing in the unit’s display and will have programmable options.
