Some procedures require that you enter a number or a word. When the
MGT wants input from you, it displays a representation of the keypad on the
screen:
The left side of the button assignment screen represents the actual buttons
on the MGT keypad. The right side of the display indicates which
characters each of the keypad buttons represent. In the display above, to
enter the character “G”, you would press “1” on the MGT keypad.
Press the right or left arrow buttons to scroll through all of the available
keypad button assignments. When the character you want to enter is
displayed on the right, press the corresponding keypad button on the left to
enter that character. The SHIFT key offers a shortcut for accessing characters
on other keypad screens: similar to the SHIFT key on a computer keyboard,
pressing SHIFT on the MGT changes the case of the characters.
After you have entered the characters you want, press the ENTER button to
send the command to the 9700 Power Meter.
Passwords and Password Timeout
All device configuration functions are password protected. The password is
factory set to zero (0). With the factory password you can penetrate the
menus and change the password to a custom value.
The MGT also features a Password Timeout feature. This feature permits
you to make multiple changes without having to repeatedly enter a
password to authorize the change. Note that the timeout feature is
applicable only within a particular SETUP menu (i.e. within CONFIGURE ION or
PARAMETER RESET). You will be prompted for your password again if the
timeout elapses or if you attempt to make changes from a different SETUP
menu area.
To change the password or adjust the timeout value, choose the OTHER
SETTINGS menu. When you are prompted for your password, press 0 (zero)
on the keypad, then press the enter button. Choose either PASSWORD
TIMEOUT or CHANGE PASSWORD. Follow the instructions on the MGT screen.
Quick Setup
The MGT’s Quick Setup menu provides access to four basic setup functions:
PT/CT, Serial COM, Ethernet COM and Demand. These settings are all made
when the device is initially put into service — typically you will not need to
change these settings once the device is operational. To access a Quick
Setup menu, press SETUP, QUICK SETUP, and then the menu you want to use.
