Using the Front Panel Buttons for Configuration

Use the front panel buttons as follows to adjust the settings:

PROG

Press the PROG (programming) button to access the Setup Menu. Once in programming mode, the PROG button functions just like an Enter key on a computer keyboard. Press the PROG button to select a highlighted item or accept changes, passwords, and trigger resets.

ESC

Press the ESC (escape) button to return to a higher menu or abort a configuration change.

Navigation

Highlight menu items with the vertical (Up/Down) buttons.

Entering numbers: when a digit is highlighted, pressing the Up button increments the number by one, and pressing the Down button decreases it. Move the cursor to an adjacent digit with the horizontal (Left/Right) buttons.

Softkeys

Press a Softkey button when Softkey options become available (when titles appear in the Softkey title bar). Use Softkeys to select the parameters that you want to configure from the various sub-menus.

Passwords

All configuration functions in the front panel are password protected. The password is set to 0 (zero) in the factory. This password allows you to access the Security setup menu and to disable or change the password for a custom value. The front panel only prompts you for the meter password before you make your first configuration change.

Setup Mode Timeout

Once the meter has been configured, the front panel automatically exits the Setup menu five minutes after the last button press is detected. If the front panel returns to data display mode, you must re-enter the Setup menu and provide the valid meter password to resume making configuration changes.

Confirming Configuration Changes

The CONFIRM screen appears whenever you attempt to change the meter’s settings through the front panel. This allows you to abort an unwanted configuration change. The front panel also informs you when an entry is out of range. In either case, you must press the PROG button to return to the setup screen.

WRITING ERROR Screen

If the CONFIRM screen does not appear for a valid entry, or the display reports a WRITING ERROR, repeat the configuration change. If the problem persists, contact Technical Services.
