points can be rearranged so that they are grouped in an orderly fashion. The up/down arrows

Scrolling Display

The SCADA 3000 will normally scroll through a programmed list of I/O points and variables

that you select. It defaults to the 16 inputs and 8 outputs on the main board. You can add or

remove items to the scrolling list via the keypad or through the Programming Software. From

the keypad you would use the Add to Display and Remove from Display functions.
If you want to go back a menu or just want to return to the programmed scrolling values, keep

pressing the MENU button. Each time it is pressed, the display will go back a menu until you

reach the main menu. The last item in the main menu is RETURN. Selecting this option will

return the display to its normal scrolling routine.
Use the Up/Down arrows to select between ADD, REMOVE, and DISPLAY FROZEN. To

Add or Remove, press the ENTER key while the corresponding message is shown. To freeze
