4.2 Contrast (viewing angle) control

When the system is making measurements in normal mode the screen contrast or viewing angle can be adjusted. Whilst holding down the Esc key press either the ￿ or ￿ key

Esc and - increases (darkens) the contrast and Esc and ￿ decreases (lightens) the contrast.

4.3 Keypad and Menu Navigation

Data entry and interrogation is normally achieved using the integral membrane keypad on the MSL600 front panel, see Figure (9).

Figure (9): Keypad layout

The keypad comprises 6 keys:

Cursor keys (￿￿￿￿￿￿￿)

Enter key (￿)

Escape key (Esc)

The four arrow keys allow navigation around the HMI menu structure and the Esc and￿￿ keys allow movement from one menu level to the next. Each time a key is pressed an audible “beep” is heard. This “beep” can be turned off via the HMI if required.

To access the main menu (from the normal display, see section 4.1) press ￿.

To access a menu option, highlight the option using the ￿￿￿ keys and press ￿.

To change a parameter the padlock in the on line/off line menu must be open. This is done by highlighting “Go off Line” in the main menu and pressing ￿. Press￿￿ again and the padlock will open. Press￿￿ again and the padlock will close.

By pressing Esc repeatedly, the screen will always return to the normal display. Alternatively, pressing and holding Esc for a few seconds will result in jumping straight back to the Main Menu screen.

If any key other than Esc is held pressed for more than 1 second then it auto repeats. This is particularly useful for fast scrolling through parameters. Although the display does not show every parameter whilst fast scrolling (it is only refreshed every 500ms), the key beep (if enabled) is actuated for each parameter.

Movement through the menu structure using the arrows is shown by the titles being highlighted and flashing, i.e. reversed to showing clear letters on a black background and vice versa. Pressing ￿￿with the title highlighted enters that part of the menu.
