Figure 4-1: Shuttle Knob

The shuttle knob is located to the right of the LCD screen and is used to change setup
parameters. Note that it cannot be used to move the cursor position between menu fields. Use
the UP and DOWN arrow keys in the FUNCTION keypad for this.

The shuttle knob can operate in one of two distinct modes of operation:

MODE

DESCRIPTION

IMMEDIATE mode

Any time the ENTER key is pressed, the i/iX Series returns to
its normal mode of operation. In this mode, changes made with
the shuttle knob or the data entry keypad will take immediate
effect. The IMMEDIATE mode is useful for slewing output
values such as voltage and frequency and observing the effect
on the load.

SET mode

When the SET key located in the FUNCTION keypad is
pressed, changes made with the shuttle to any output
parameter will not take effect until the ENTER key is pressed. In
this mode, any changes made to a setup menu will be blinking
to indicate the pending change condition. This mode allows
changes to be made to all output parameters and executing
them all at once by pressing the ENTER key.
