6.1 Reading and setting
values
The setting procedure for setting different values is identical for all differ-
ent types of parameters. Fig. 9 shows a typical example of such a proce-
dure.
The top row shows the previous and present menus (.path1/path2) and
indicates the position in the complete menu tree. If the background behind
the parameter name flashes, you can enter a value.
Select the E button to switch from Fig. 9a to Fig. 9b. Row three of the first
data window displays the current value in the parameter with the corre-
sponding unit (seconds, Ohm, and so on).
Fig. 9 Example of a setting procedure for a real value of a variable
When the last digit of a number value (second window) is underscored by
the cursor, you can change the current value of the digit.
Select the up arrow to increase the value or the down arrow to decrease
the value. Release the arrow button when you reach the number value that
is required.
Use the left and right arrows to switch between digits (Fig. 9c and 9d).
The digit that can be changed is always underscored.
You must confirm the new parameter value by selecting E. Then the
parameter changes (Fig. 9f), and the background flashes behind the
parameter name, as it did at the start of the procedure.
Note: The new parameter value does not immediately appear in the corre-
sponding setting group because all setting procedures are performed in
separate editing areas.
New setting values for a setting group are activated after you save all set-
tings in one of four groups of setting parameters and then exit from the
editing area. See “Saving the settings in a setting group” in chapter 6.9.
