Chapter 5 - Configuring Impulse with an IDC Keypad

Keypad Menu Structure

Most operations using the keypad are menu-driven. A menu consists of a title bar on the top display line and as many as three options (or sub-menus) at a time on the bottom display line. Each option is displayed above one of the function keys, F1, F2, or F3. Press a function key to select the corresponding option.

If a menu has more than three options, arrows will appear on both sides of the display to indicate that more options are available. Press the appropriate arrow key to scroll, one display at a time, through all options in that menu. To exit a menu without making a selection, or to back up one menu level, press ESC.

The following table shows the Menus which are accessible from the Main Display by pressing the RUN, EDIT, HELP, COPY and DEL keys:
