8 MultiFlex PAK Hand-
Held Terminal Inter-
face
All MultiFlex boards have a Hand-Held Ter-
minal interface, which can be used to view status
for the board without having to use the site con-
troller. Though different for each model of Mul-
tiFlex, the Hand-Held Terminal interface allows
you to perform the same general functions:
• View failure messages that relate to the MultiFlex
• View the status of inputs
• View the current state of relay outputs (ON or OFF)
and analog outputs (both in volts and in percentage)
• Override relay outputs to a fixed ON or OFF state,
or override analog outputs to a fixed percentage
• Make temporary or permanent changes to set points
Plugging In the Hand-Held Terminal
The Hand-Held Terminal plugs into the RJ11
jack on the MultiFlex base board (located on the
bottom left side of the board, as shown in
Figure
8-1 ). Press the Hand-Held Terminal connector
into the jack until it snaps into place. When the
connector is correctly seated, the screen to the
Hand-Held Terminal will display the message
“CPC Handheld Terminal” and then the first
screen of the MultiFlex interface.
8.1. The HHT Interface
8.1.1. Navigation
The Hand-Held Terminal interface consists
of a simple series of screens and menus.
Scrolling Through The Hand-Held Screens
The UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW
keys are used to scroll through the screens. Some
of these screens are read-only, meaning there are
no editable fields; others are either menus that
require you to enter a selection or are configura-
tion screens that have one or more changeable
fields.
Shortcut Keys (F1 and F2)
At any time, you may press the F1 key on the
Hand-Held Terminal to return to the Configura-
tion Menu, or F2 to view the status screens.
