simplify day-to-day operation of the unit. When the
LOCK command is selected, all of the menus are
disabled. The only item available will be UNLOCK.
Selecting UNLOCK makes all of the menu items
available again.
When locked, the unit is password protected so only
authorized personnel may unlock the menus. As
shipped from the factory, the security feature is
disabled and the LOCK/UNLOCK options do not
appear. To enable the feature and select a password,
see the SECURITY SETUP menu item.
Remember your password! Once security is enabled
and the menus are locked, the only way to unlock will
be to use the password. If you do forget the password,
contact Midian for the reset procedure.
4.4.2 Emergency/Status Display
Upon receipt of an emergency ANI, the emergency
LED will blink and an alarm siren will sound (if
enabled). Also, the ANI and the 'EMERGENCY'
message are placed on the 1
st
line of the display,
alternating every 2 seconds so that the user can be
identified.
Up to 11 status messages can be programmed in total.
All but status 9 and 10, are blank. Status 9 is reserved
for EMERGENCY, and status 10 is reserved for
DISABLED. Status message 0 is usually referred to as
NO STATUS, and should be left blank. The actual text
of the 10 status messages 0-10 may be programmed
to any 10-character message you wish. Examples of
which are EN-ROUTE, OFF DUTY, etc.
4.4.3 Repeater Access Control
The DDU can be interfaced to a repeater to limit
access only to those users who are authorized. This is
accomplished by requiring an ANI of the proper format
before granting access. Access can be further
restricted by requiring that the ANI match a User ID
stored in the database. See REPEATER SETUP for
more information.
5 MENU SYSTEM
The following sections describe the various functions
of the menu system. Factory default settings are
