PROGRAM MODE
INTRODUCTION TO MENU PROGRAMMING
The menu programming format used by the Ambassador
series eliminates the need to memorize or look up program-
ming options. Program prompting is provided on the 2 line
alphanumeric display.
The programming menus are organized in a manner much
like an outline. The main menu items are located out to the far
left column and each successive subdivision of these main
items is located one column further to the right.
The keystroke sequences to select all of the programmable
options are shown in the programming charts on pages 7-10.
The seven main menus are shown below.
