PREPARING TO CONNECT
THE 541 FRONT PANEL
Front Panel vs.
Web Interface
Setup
Setup and operating adjustments of the 541 are under firm-
ware control; there are no jumpers, switches or mechanical po-
tentiometers. The unit may be set-up locally through the front-
panel LCD-touchscreen, or remotely using the built-in Webserv-
er interface and any networked computer, tablet or mobile de-
vice with a Web browser.
LCD and Web menus follow one another in a reasonably faithful
manner, and the few differences are covered in the various dis-
cussions that follow. You will at least need to access the LCD-
touchscreen to find the unit’s IP address, so some familiarity
with the front panel is useful.
Powering-Up
‘Boot’ (startup) time of 541 is under five seconds. When power
is first applied, or following a power interruption, the unit is
back in full operation quickly. Setup and reception parameters
in effect previous to a power glitch are reloaded instantly from
non-volatile memory into the processing core.
The LCD-
Touchscreen
The LCD-touchscreen has an adjustable timeout feature with a
factory default timeout of 5 minutes. Touching the screen will
wake it up and reset the timer. Below is an image of what you
might see initially with factory-default options.
