Data input forms
Information required for various operational functions and setup
parameters is entered through a data input form. These forms will
appear after selecting features that require any additional information.
Each form provides specific fields for entering the required
information.
To confirm the changes:
Press the ENTER key.
To ignore the changes and return to the previous screen:
Press the C key.
Instruction box messages
Whenever a menu or form is open, an instruction box will also open
immediately to the right of it (see Fig. I.18). This message box will
provide information to the operator on what the chosen function does
and present instructions on the available options.
Error messages
If an error occurs while you are working with the ND, the message will
appear on the display and provide an explanation of what caused the
error.
To acknowledge the error message:
Press the C key.
Fig. I.18 Example of instruction box messages
If a new error occurs before the last error has been
acknowledged, the last error that has occurred will be
displayed. After the last error has been acknowledged, the
previous error will be displayed again. The ND always
stores the last error of each error category for
acknowledgment (see "Error messages" on page 60).
