Menu Options Instructions
There are Systems Menus to help guide the user through the options available in the
α
2. The
TopMenu has a Run Mode that is accessed while the
α
2 is in operation or a Stop Mode that is
accessed when the
α
2 is idle.
The Edit Menu and the Function Block Edit Menu can be accessed when in either ProgEdit or
Monitor. These menus can be used to create and/or change programs steps or values.
Use the “OK” key to enter a programming option or to enter data into memory.
Set all the data on the screen before using the “OK” key to write the data to the system
memory. If there are multiple data screens in an option, enter the required data and accept
each screen with the “OK” key.
The “ESC” key will move the screen back to a higher menu option. It will cancel any data input
that has not been accepted with the “OK” key.
Note:
Use the “ESC” key to exit the option to the higher menu; at times, it will be necessary to press
the “ESC” key a number of times to move through multiple programming layers.
