Status Bar Definitions
The status bar located horizontally across the top of the FIFE-500-XL Web Guide Operator
Level screen remains visible at all times. The number on the left side of the status bar
contains the numerical address of the connected motor controller and it should always be 1
(except in networked systems, where it will indicate the address of the currently selected
drive). The number on the right side of the status bar indicates a hierarchical screen number.
The first numerical value indicates the operation mode (1=Manual, 2=Servo-Center,
3=Automatic). The second alphabetic character indicates the sensor mode (A=S1, B=S2,
C=S1-S2). This screen number uniquely identifies each screen of the FIFE-500-XL Web
Guiding System. The status bar also displays various icons which are described below.
OPERATION MODE One of these icons will appear to indicate the
operation mode of the FIFE-500-XL Web Guiding System. These do
not appear on the Operator Level screen since the mode buttons
already indicate this information. These will only appear while in the
setup screens.
SENSOR SELECTION One of these icons will appear to indicate the
currently selected sensor mode. These do not appear on the Operator
Level screen since the SENSOR button already contains this
information.
MENU TIMEOUT The menu screens in the FIFE-500-XL Web Guiding
System close automatically after 3 minutes of touch screen inactivity.
The inactivity timeout option and the timeout value are configurable.
The clock icons will appear during stages of the timeout process as
the inactivity timer counts down. If a timeout occurs, the respective
menu will abort any changes applied and return to the Operator Level
screen. Some service-related screens are immune from the timeout
option and are indicated by the presence of the orange clock icon.
LOGIN AUTHORIZATION LEVEL When security has been configured,
one of these icons will appear to indicate the authorization level of the
current user. Level 1 has the least access while level 3 has the most.
Security is disabled in the factory default configuration so these icons
will not be displayed. All menu screens are accessible when security is
disabled.
READ ONLY MENU When security is enabled, options are available to
make menus “read only”, allowing an operator to view the settings but
not change them. This icon will appear when the active menu is a
“read only” menu.
DIGITAL INPUT COMMAND This icon appears when a valid digital
input command is present. Depending on the command, some touch
panel controls may be disabled during this time. A red arrow in the
down direction indicates digital input influence is disabled. A red up
arrow indicates the digital outputs are disabled.
