7.4.2 USING MENU MODE

SUGGESTION: Before using the menu mode, it is best to disable the automatic feedback feature. The values and current settings will be displayed in the menu mode, but the automatic feature will display after each setting change making the menus difficult to read.

1.In order to enter menu mode, the system needs to be connected to a computer running RS-232 control software.

2.Insert the card into an empty slot and push in all the way for a secure fit.

3.Reset the system or power the system off and then on.

4.In the terminal window, press ENTER.

5.The system will interrogate the enclosure and return a list of cards installed and their slot locations.

Example: 08: MT105-100

NOTE: Only cards supporting the menu feature will be displayed.

5.Find the two digit number representing the card ID whose setup requires changing. They will be the first two characters in the line.

6.Enter the two digit number associated with the card, and a menu with options available for that card will appear on the screen. In the example above, press "08".

WARNING: Do NOT enter any characters except those relating to the desired menu. Pressing ENTER after "08" will force the system back to the original prompt.

7.After selecting the MT105-100as described above, the system will prompt for selections specific to that card.

8.Read each menu carefully, and continue selecting keys as prompted for further functions. (Example prompt: "Key= ")

7.4.4 MT105-100 MENUS

Following are the menus available to the MT105-100. The first menu is the Main Menu only. The second listing is an expansion of all the menu items available.

The expanded menu contains values that indicate the current setting or value of a parameter. The value is usually in parentheses, or otherwise indicated at the top of a sub menu. In some areas, additional comments are provided for clarification and are not part of the menu feedback.

Some menu settings act as toggle features. For example, in the Control ON/OFF menu, pressing key “1” toggles Output 1 off and on.

System prompts requiring specific values for entering input and output numbers are not shown. See the examples following the menus.

CAUTION: Pay special attention to the top of each menu. After selecting the CONTROL menu, THIS CARD or a group will be identified at the top of the sub menu. Since group functions may be modified from this menu, make sure the card or group is selected.
