3.1 USER INTERFACE

RPM4/HPMS is designed to offer the optimum balance between simple, straight forward operation and

the availability of a wide variety of functions with a high level of operator discretion if desired.

The local operator interface is through the RPM4 front panel 2 x 20 character alpha-numeric display, a

function/data keypad, a cursor control pad, an [ENTER] footswitch and a Ready/Not Ready indicator.

Remote communications are also available via RS-232 or IEEE-488 interfaces (see Section 4).

The HPMS mounts the RPM4 at a convenient viewing angle and includes a valve and visual indicators to

isolate and protect the RPM4’s 3 000 psi Q-RPT (A20M) when using the 10 000 psi Q-RPT (A70M) (see

Section 3.2.5).

3.1.1 MAIN RUN SCREEN

The RPM4 MAIN RUN screen is its home display that is reached on power-up and from which

other functions and menus are accessed. It is the very top level of all menu structures.

The MAIN RUN screen is where RPM4 is left in normal operation. It displays the current

measured pressure as well as a variety of additional information if desired.

Figure 7 and its legend summarize the RPM4 MAIN RUN screen fields and their functions.

RPM4 has a screen saver function which causes the display to dim if no key is pressed for

10 minutes. Pressing a key restores full power to the display. The screen saver time can be

changed or screen saving can be completely suppressed (see Section 3.5.5.1).
