When prime power is applied to the demodulator, the base level of the menu system
displays the sign-on message:

• Line 2 is the version number of the firmware


The main level of the menu system is Function Select. To access this base menu level,
press either [

←] or [→]. From the Function Select menu, use [←] or [→] to select one of

the functional categories:

• Configuration
• Monitor
• Faults/Alarms
• Stored

Faults/Alarms

• Utility


When the desired function is displayed, select that menu by pressing . After
entering the appropriate functional menu, press [

←] or [→] to move to the desired

function. To return to the previous menu or to exit a function, press [CLEAR].

Notes: Menus that are specific to certain demodulator configurations are only accessible
after selecting the appropriate demodulator configuration. This prevents incompatible
parameters from being selected accidentally.
