4: User Interfaces

The XLi features two user interfaces for controlling the XLi’s functions:

A keypad/display interface on the front panel of the XLi

A command line interface, available through the serial and network ports

A web interface, available from a browser connected to the XLi’s network port.

There is also an Alarm Status LED on the front panel.

Alarm Status LED

The Alarm Status LED, located on the front panel, displays the alarm-state of the XLi unit. The LED has four states:

Dark

=

Power is off.

Green

=

No F73-related alarms. The current reference source input is locked.

Amber

=

No F73 Alarms. Timeout Delay is counting down, but hasn’t elapsed. The current reference

 

 

source input is unlocked (e.g. broken antenna cable or no GPS signal)

Red

=

An indicator in F73 has triggered an alarm. Check F73 to find out what the fault/unlock condition

 

 

is and take appropriate action.

Notes:

The amber LED can turn green again while the reference source input remains unlocked because:

-F119’s ‘GPS Status’ controls whether the LED turns amber.

-F73’s ‘Timeout Delay’ controls how long the LED remains amber.

The blinking of the LED has no meaning. It is a user preference that can be enabled or disabled using the F73’s ‘LED Blink’ setting. If enabled, the LED blinks when it is green and yellow, but stays unblinking when it is red. If disabled, the LED doesn’t blink.

Keypad/Display Interface

Time Display

Press the TIME button on the keypad to display the time only. Use the TIME button to exit the STATUS, MENU, or function displays. The time format is DDD:HH:MM:SS.
