Modifying Configuration Menu Values

The configuration menus contain options that enable you to:

❑Display additional configuration menus

❑Display and modify configuration values

To display a menu from within a menu, type the number of the option and press Return.

To display or modify a value from a configuration menu:

1.Type the number of the option you want to display or modify and press Return. The configuration menus have a timeout value of 2 minutes. Therefore, you must enter a keystroke to a menu within 2 minutes or the following message displays and the module automatically warm-starts.

Keyboard input timeout.

Module warm started and config system exited.

2.To modify configuration menu values, delete one character at a time using the Backspace key. To delete the entire value, press Ctrl-U. When you press Ctrl-U, <CANCEL> appears at the end of the current value to verify that the current value is canceled.

3.Enter the new value and press Return.

4.Select S to save changes and exit the current menu, or 0 (zero) to cancel changes and exit the current menu. Exiting a current menu brings you up one menu level. When you return to the Main menu, you must select either a warm or cold start to re-initialize the RMON MultiProbe Module.

5.To re-initialize the RMON MultiProbe Module, select option 3 for a warm start or select option 4 for cold start.

(Refer to the section Re-initializing the RMON MultiProbe Module later in this chapter for information on the effects of warm and cold starts.)
