Displayed System Bulletins

Displayed system bulletins are messages generated by operating conditions within the MP96 system. During
operational use, the standard operating display format illustrated in Figure 19 will be shown unless a system
bulletin is present with a higher priority.

Figure 19: Standard Operating Display (Default Screen)

Figure 20 shows a typical example of a displayed system bulletin.

Figure 20: Typical Displayed System Bulletin

Depending on the configuration of your remote control system, some or all of the bulletins shown in Table 5 may
be displayed during normal system operation. Note that every time a bulletin is displayed, the same bulletin is
also downloaded to the datalog where it is time and date stamped for subsequent retrieval and review.
