Changing Displayed Parameters in an Existing Screen

For the ION 7500, ION 7600, ION 8000 Series, and ION 7300 Series meters, you can change displayed parameters in existing screens using Designer software.

NOTE

For the ION 7300 Series meter, you must set the Display Options module’s Display Mode setup register to PROGRAMMABLE before changing displayed parameters in an existing screen.

To change parameters shown in a display screen, link the output register containing the numeric data you want to display to the Source inputs of the Display module. If there is not a free Source input, you will have to first delete (i.e., “unlink”) an existing link to a Source input.

Changing Displayed Parameters using the Meter’s Front

Panel

With the ION 7300 Series meters, you can change the displayed parameters in an existing screen using the meter’s front panel.

Before changing displayed parameters in an existing screen:

For customized screens to display on the front panel, you must set the Display Options module’s Display Mode setup register to PROGRAMMABLE before changing displayed parameters in an existing screen.

On the meter’s front panel, go to DISPLAY SETUP > DISPLAY MODE and select

PROGRAMMABLE.

Changing displayed parameters in an existing screen:

The SCREEN SETUP menu screen allows you to change the data displayed on the eight display screens.

1.From the SELECT SETUP menu, select SCREEN SETUP. The list of display titles appears that correspond to each of the eight display screens. The screen number with an asterix (*) beside it indicates the active display (the screen displayed before you entered SELECT SETUP).

2.Select the screen you want to change, and press the round button. Two settings appear, VALUES and STYLE, that allow you to specify which measurements to display.

3.Select STYLE if you need to change the number of displayed parameters in the selected screen.

This setting has five options for each display screen: ONE PARAMETER, TWO

PARAMETER, THREE PARAMETER, FOUR PARAMETER, and DISABLED. Select the number of values you want to display (the fewer the values you select for display, the larger the measurement will appear on the display screen).

If you select a large style (for example, one value) for a display screen that is set to display more than one value, the front panel will warn you with a message, and will display only the first value — the links to the undisplayable values are severed and will have to be reprogrammed.
