PROGRAMMING THE VSSI-PRO
NAVIGATING THE RANGE AND THE EXCEPTION STRING
Before you define your range, we need to explain how to navigate through the range and exception string using the front
panel switches. To program the range, press the “Up” or “Down” button to move the cursor to “RANGE” and press “Set”.
The first “0” in the range starts to flash. This means it is active and ready for programming. Press the “Up” or “Down”
button to cycle through the values and press “Set” when the desired value is displayed. This will advance the active block
to the next character. While you are on an active block, pressing the “Up” and “Set” buttons simultaneously will return
that block back to a blank, which is designated by a solid white box. You can follow this format to program your range.
When you have finished and wish to set this range into the VSSI-Pro memory, simultaneously press and release the “Up”
and “Down” buttons. You can also use this if you make a mistake and want to start over, since there is no backspace
feature.
DEFINING THE RANGE
To define the range for the selected exception, press the “Up” or “Down” button to move the cursor to “RANGE” and
press “Set”. This will make the first position in the range field active. Follow the procedure outlined in the previous few
paragraphs to enter your range.
EXITING THE RANGE FIELD
When you are ready to exit and continue on, simultaneously press and release the “Up” and “Down” buttons. This will set
the range in the VSSI-Pro memory and exit you back to the EXCEPTION REPORT sub-menu.
Now every time the VSSI-Pro "sees" a line of text that includes this text string (a line is defined as text between CR), it
will not display them because the exceptions display has been turned off.
EXIT
Press the “Up” or “Down” button to move the cursor to “EXIT” and press “Set” to return to the previous menu.
ALARM OUTPUTS
Press the “Up” or “Down” button to move the cursor to “ALARM OUTPUTS” and press “Set”. The following sub-menu will
appear:

the range or exception string into memory and to return to the previous menu.
