ND 287 power-up
Switch on the ND 287. The power switch is located
on the back of the ND. After switching the ND 287 on,
or after a power failure, the power-up screen will
appear (see Fig. I.10). The green LED on the front
panel lights up. The power-up screen shows the
position display unit model as well as the ID and
version number of the currently installed software.
Press the LANGUAGE soft key if you want to change the
conversational language (see Fig. I.11). Press ENTER to confirm your
selection.
Press the HELP soft key to call the integrated help system.
Press any key to call the standard screen.
Your ND 287 is now ready for operation in the Actual Value operating
mode. If an incremental encoder is connected to the ND, the REF
symbol is flashing. At this point the reference mark evaluation should
be completed (see "Reference mark evaluation" on page 22).
If an absolute encoder is connected to the ND, the encoder
automatically transmits the absolute position value to the position
display unit.

the front panel lights up. To reactivate the screen, press
any key or move the encoder.
You can deactivate the power-up screen in order to
