There are four user interfaces available for the MM200. These are:
 Front Panel Control.
 Command Interface Control.
 Terminal Interface
 Ethernet SNMP
Any of these methods may be used separately or together to monitor and control the MM200.
Each of these interfaces and their respective methods are discussed separately below.
4.1 Front Panel User Interface
The front panel of the MM200 allows for complete monitor and control (M&C) of all parameters
and functions via a keypad, LCD display and status LEDs.
The front panel layout is shown in Figure 4

The front panel is divided into four functional areas: the Front Panel LCD Display, the Cursor
