. For configuring the paging console the

(ON)
The
n
button turns the system‘s power on or off. Turning the
power on can take several seconds. The ON LED blinks while
the system boots. The ON LED lights steadily when the sys-
tem is operational. To prevent inadvertent erroneous operat-
ing pressing the key for at least 3 seconds is necessary when
turning the power off. It is also possible to prohibit the opera-
tion of the ON key during the configuration procedure.
In setup mode this
button is used to
select the previous
parameter/menu
item.
ESC (STOP)
Pressing the STOP button cancels an output alarm signal or
text message. Only events that were triggered from a specific
paging console can be stopped from the exact terminal with
the exception of the directing station. This terminal allows
canceling all signals.
This button is used
to cancel the edit-
ing of a parameter
or to move upwards
in the menu tree.
