4. Operator Interface
The operator interface for the MultiGard 5000 unit is a 10.4”color touch-screen that provides both
information display and user input. This section applies to all unit configurations as well as
illustrating the single system versus dual system screen differences.
Throughout this chapter the screens for the MultiGard 5000 24/32 point unit are shown in the
figures. Users of MultiGard 5000 8/16 units should note the following rules on using the same
operator manual:

The location of any item is in the same relative position for all system styles.

The same information content is provided on each screen for all system styles.

Wherever 32 points of information are shown in the figures, 16 points of information will
actually be seen on the screens in a similar format.

The phrases underlined and in quotes which lead to a description of an item still refer to the
figures. Any changes will be noted in the description (see next bullet).

In the item descriptions point ranges or references to system size may be specified which match
the figure. Substitute the numbers in brackets ( [] ) in place of those in the sentence.

Any exceptions to these rules will be discussed in the appropriate section.
Below is one example showing the similarity between a MultiGard 5000 8/16 screen and a MultiGard
5000 24/32 screen using the rules described above where appropriate.
