System-level privileges are required to change system parameters.  These are indicated by the letter (S) following 

their descriptors.  If an operator is not logged in, or is logged in with user-level privileges, touching a numeric entry 

field for a system

with the appropriate privileges, touching the field will cause the numeric keypad will pop up to permit a new value 

to be entered.    

The system parameters are accessed by for maintenance purposes only.  These

reference purposes only. 

POS:    Display field, indicating the position of the batten as held in the control system. 

UP OFST: (fixed-speed winches only). The up offset is the stopping distance calculated into target moves for the 

winch when moving up, in decimal feet. 

DN OFST: (

d-speed winches only)  The down offset is the stopping distance ca

the winch wh

wn, in decimal feet. 

NEW POS: 

Entry field used with system level privileges to set a new position.   

MAX SPD:  (variable-speed winches only) The maximum speed of the winch, in feet per minute. 

MIN SPD:  (variable-speed winches only) The minimum speed of the winch, in feet per minute. 

POS UPDATE:  Touch

NEW POS field, the POS UPDATE button is touched to load this value into the
