LCD Console

The AcquiLite has an LCD console and two push buttons labeled “Menu” and “Select”.  These can be used to configure 
some of the basic features of the AcquiLite.  The intended purpose of the console is to configure the AcquiLite to a point 
where a computer can communicate with it for further detailed configuration.   

When the AcquiLite is running, it will show “AcquiLite Ready” and the current time alternated with the Ethernet IP address. 
If you choose to enable the console display of data points, the LCD will also show the selected point names and current 
reading values.  The display will change to the next listed item about once every 10 seconds.  If a data point name is longer 
than will fit on the 16 character wide display, it will be scrolled.  Pressing the Select button will cause the display to change 
to the next configured item. Pressing the Select button quickly will skip through multiple display points. 

Pressing the Menu button will cause the main menu to appear. Once [Main Menu] is shown on the console, the Menu button 
will change the menu option, and the Select button will take action on the currently displayed option.  Some options provide 
sub menus, others allow you to edit the option value.   The following is a tree display of the main menu and sub menus.
