6. Configuring the System
The H212 Handheld's Configure Mode may be used to adapt the Trident Remote
Control System to a specific machine variant. To enter Configure Mode, proceed as
follows:
1.
If the system does not yet have a Handheld, match a Handheld with the C220
Controller as described in the Quick Start Guide.
2.
Ensure the Handheld is turned off.
3.
Proceed as though you were turning the Handheld on normally; but
4.
Continue to hold the Handheld's green button until both the red and green
LEDs illuminate together.
5.
Release the green button. The Handheld is now in Configure Mode.
While in Configure Mode, the left and right rectangular buttons around the upper
display screen may be used to select one of many parameters to be displayed and/or
modified. The top and bottom rectangular buttons may be used to increment and
decrement each parameter; holding a button will cause its action to repeat automatically
(e.g. increment repeatedly). Pressing the green button will cause changes to the
parameters to be saved.
Some parameters (e.g. Splash screen display time, Shift button
momentary/latched) are local to the Handheld and are available for viewing and
modification when the Handheld is in communication with a C220 Controller. Other
parameters (e.g. Machine type) are stored in the C220 Controller; when it is desired to
view or modify a parameter that is stored in the machine controller, the Handheld must be
matched with a C220 Controller and the Controller must be powered. Some parameters
are protected against modification with an access code; if an attempt is made to increment
or decrement a protected parameter, the lower screen will display a message asking for a
numeric access code to be entered. Once the access code has been entered, all protected
parameters may be modified.
While in Configure Mode, the lower buttons and display screen will also permit
certain machine functions to be operated for the purpose of testing the performance of
certain parameter values.
Additional parameters can be configured on the handheld depending on the type
of system that is being used. Please contact us for further information. Below are some
general parameters that can be configured.
6.1. Radio Perform.
This parameter allows trade-off between radio range, control responsiveness, and
run-time per battery charge, as follows:
