Menus and Sub-Menus provide a convenient method of accessing a large
number of display screens.

Main Menu

Every application has a Main Menu screen. The Main Menu is the first
application screen displayed after an initial power-up or reset.

The Main Menu provides access to the next level of screens and Sub-Menus.
To access the Main Menu, press the [MAIN MENU] key. Pressing this key
at any time displays the Main Menu. The only time the Main Menu will not
be displayed is when an alarm screen has been triggered but not
acknowledged. You must acknowledge alarm screens, by pressing [Y],
before another screen can be displayed.

Sub-Menus

Sub-Menu screens function like the Main Menu. The only difference is that
you must navigate through the other screens to access the Sub-Menus.

Security screens limit access to parts of an application. Although the text on
a security screen may be changed by the application designer, many
applications will use the default text:

*RESTRICTED ACCESS*

ENTER CODE:

A security code is a series of 1 to 8 digits. Each security screen can have up
to 3 code entries. Entering any one of the codes provides access.

To enter a security code, use the numeric keypad. An asterisk (

*

) is

displayed for each number entered. Press [

] after the entire code is

entered.

If a valid security code has been entered, the next linked screen is displayed.
If an invalid security code is entered, an error message appears. Once the
error condition is acknowledged by pressing [Y], you can re-enter the code
or return to the Main Menu.
