System and Control Options

9.0SYSTEM AND CONTROL OPTIONS

NOTE

For ease of understanding, this section uses the LCD interface to illustrate most instructions, except for features that are available only through the Service Terminal Interface. All Service Terminal Interface screens appear in Appendix A - Service Terminal Interface.

The System and Control menu allows you to configure the Universal Monitor—setting up inputs and outputs and an input/output matrix to trigger actions, the modem and pagers, and system features such as date and time. This menu also provides a vehicle for manually changing the state of an output to ON or OFF, clearing active alarms and deleting records from the Universal Monitor’s alarm log, event log and trend logs.

The arrows ↑ ↓ are used to scroll through the menu. The Enter key is used to select the menu item and enter new information. Table 20 shows characters that may be entered in labels and values.
