HE4000 Encoding System
Using the Front Panel
3.10.3 Status Button
The Status button is a hot key, which enables immediate viewing of any faults currently occurring
on the HE4000 and then toggling back to the front panel menu on which work was being done.
When leaving the current faults using the Status button hot key, you are
returned to the menu level at which you were working, not to the
parameter level.
3.11 Issuing Commands
To issue a command from the front panel, perform the following steps:
1.
Navigate through the menus to the required command or parameter using the navigation
buttons.
2.
Change the parameter option as required:
• Scroll through the options using the Up or Down buttons. Ensure that the required
option is selected with the brackets [ ].
• If the option requires a numeric value to be entered, enter the value using either the
Up and Down buttons to increment the value or the numeric keypad to type in the
value.
•
3.
Issue the command by pressing the Enter key. An asterisk will display and then
disappear when the system is finished processing the request. The parameter, with its
updated value, is then displayed in brackets and does not flash.
•
If the Enter button is not pressed, the option is not changed.
•
While the HE4000 is setting the parameter to the new value, the front panel is
temporarily disabled.
When the HE4000 configuration is changed using the front panel, the
changes are automatically stored in non-volatile memory. The HE4000
automatically restores to the saved configuration whenever the unit is
reset or powered up.
