OPERATION
Menu System
All configurations and operations are
handled by a menu-driven system
operated from the bright touch screen
display. The settings and controls are
organized into ten main sections as
displayed on the MAIN MENU.
Note:
Keys with a “double box” in the
upper left hand corner lead to
sub-menus.
Menu Keys
The controls that change the data field information in the menus will be one of the
following:
1. Toggles. These data fields contain ON/OFF or YES/NO choices. Simply touching
the key on the screen toggles the choice to the other option. The current setting is
displayed in the lower right corner of the key.
2. Option Selection. These data fields contain a list of options. Touching the key on
the screen steps the user through the available choices. The current setting is
displayed in the lower right corner of the key.
3. Value Entry Fields. These data fields are used to enter data into the Calorimeter.
Touching the key on the screen brings up a sub-menu with a key pad or similar
screen for entering the required value.
Some keys lead to multiple choices. Always
clear the current value before entering a new value. Once entered the screen will
return to the previous menu and the new value will be displayed in the lower right
corner of the key.
4. Data Displays. Most of these keys display values that have been calculated by the
calorimeter and are informational only. Certain ones can be overridden by the user
entering a desired value through a sub-menu. The value is displayed in the lower
right corner of the key.
Note:
Some keys will respond with an opportunity for the user to confirm the
specified action to minimize accidental disruptions to the program and/or
stored data.
