6.The Status Screens

The PLS Status Screens are used to display current conditions of the three switched A/B circuits and the network interface. There are two status screens; the Circuit Status Screen (/S), and the Network Status Screen (/SN).

6.1. The Circuit Status Screen

The Circuit Status Screen lists the current A/B settings for the PLS-345's three switched circuits, and also summarizes user- selected parameters, such as Command Echo, Inactivity Timeout, and Command Confirmation.

As shown in Figure 6.1, the Circuit Status Screen lists the following items:

1.Site ID Message: The currently defined Site ID message. Note that the site ID message is defined via the General Parameters Menu (/G).

2.Ckt #: The circuit numbers for the PLS's three A/B circuits.
