3.3 Local Control Using the Densité Frame Control Panel
3.3.1 Overview
Press the SELECT button on the KMV-3901/3911 card edge (see section 1.4) to assign the local control
panel to operate the card. Use the control panel buttons to navigate through the menu, as described below.
All of the cards installed in a Densité frame are connected to the frame’s controller card, which handles all
interaction between the cards and the outside world. There are no operating controls located on the cards
themselves. The controller supports remote operation via its Ethernet ports, and local operation using its
integrated control panel.
The local control panel is fastened to the controller card by a hinged connector, and when installed is located
in the front center of the frame, positioned in front of the power supplies. The panel consists of a display unit
capable of displaying two lines of text, each 16 characters in length, and five buttons.
The panel is assigned to operate any card in the frame by
pressing the SELECT button on the front edge of that card.
• Pressing the CONTROLLER button on the
control panel selects the Controller card itself.
• The STATUS LED on the selected card starts
blinking orange.
The local control panel displays a menu that can be
navigated using the four buttons located beneath the
display. The functionality of the buttons is as follows:
[+] [–] Used for menu navigation and value modification.
[SELECT] Gives access to the next menu level. When a parameter value is shown, pressing this button
once enables modification of the value using the [+] and [–] buttons; pressing a second time
confirms the new value.
[ESC] Cancels the effect of parameter value changes that have not been confirmed; pressing [ESC]
causes the parameter to revert to its former value.
Pressing [ESC] moves the user back up to the previous menu level. At the main menu, [ESC]
does not exit the menu system. To exit, press the [SELECT] button on the front edge of the card
being controlled.
If no controls are operated for 30 seconds, the controller reverts to its normal standby status, and the
selected card’s STATUS LED reverts to its normal operating mode. If a parameter was changed on the card
but not submitted (SELECT was not pressed) and the 30 second timeout occurs, the parameters will be
confirmed as if the SELECT key had been pressed.
3.3.2 Menu for Local Control
The KMV-3901/3911 has operating parameters which may be adjusted locally at the controller card interface.
• Press the SELECT button on the KMV-3901/3911 front card edge to assign the Densité frame’s local
control panel to the card.
• Use the keys on the local control panel to step through the displayed menu to configure and adjust
the KMV-3901/3911.
The complete menu structure is shown in the Annex to this document, beginning on page 21.
