Operating The Controller Via The Keyboard And Display
Screen Layout:
When the controller is connected to the power supply, the screen is usually off (for power conservation)
touching any of the keys turns the screen on. The top row of the screen always shows the title of the
screen in capital letters. The next row (between 2 lines) displays the number of the head, the type and
number of the element and the screen number for quick access. The main area of the screen shows
varying parameters for information and programming. On the two sides of the screen the titles of the
function keys are located; they alter in accordance with the specific screen displayed. Details of the
current time and date are displayed on the bottom row.
Keyboard Layout:
The keyboard contains 10 digit keys, a decimal point, clear, 13 navigation keys and 8 function keys.
The
key clears the parameter below the cursor.
