4.2. DOT-MATRIX 

DISPLAY 

Additional signal and status monitoring is provided via the 4-digit dot-matrix display located at the card-
edge. The card-edge pushbutton and toggle switch are used to navigate through the display menu.  Figure 
4-2 provides a quick reference of the display menu structure. The details of the each of 
the displays are 
described in the sections 4.2.1 to 4.2.6. 
 
You can use the toggle switch to move up and down the list of available parameters to adjust.  To adjust 
any parameter, use the toggle switch to move up or down to the desired parameter and press the 
pushbutton.  Using the toggle switch, adjust the parameter to its desired value.  If the parameter is a 
numerical value, the number will increase if you push up on the toggle switch and decrease if you push 
down on the toggle switch.  If the parameter contains a list of choices, you can cycle through the list by 
pressing the toggle switch in either direction.  The parameter values are changed as you cycle through the 
list. 
 
When you have stopped at the desired value, depress the pushbutton.  This will return to the parameter 
select menu item you are setting (the display shows the parameter name you were setting).  To change 
another parameter, use the toggle switch to select other parameters.  If neither the toggle switch nor 
pushbutton is operated for several seconds the card edge control will exit the menu system and return to 
an idle state.  
 
On all menus, there is an extra selectable item: 

BACK

. Selecting 

BACK

 will take you to the previous menu 

(the one that was used to get into the current menu).  On the main menu, 

BACK

 will both take the user to 

the normal operating mode (indicated by the moving line on the card edge display).
