By using a text/graphics display in the controllere a detailed system diagnosis is
possible. The handling of the unit with the four keys is easy to learn. The bilingual
structure of the menus and messages simplifies worldwide use of this device fam-
ily. An intelligent message management generates priority-based diagnostic and
error messages and supports the user during set-up.
Above the keys, the display dynamically displays the corresponding functions.
After power-on of the controllere the unit either displays a start screen with the
ifm
logo or – if available – a list of the errors in the connected AS-i systems. In any
case, the system menu can be accessed by pressing the left [
MENU
] button.
