2.1 Setup Menu Configuration
Variables inside system and channel menu trees allow optimum WX16 configuration
for a wide range of demanding multi-point monitoring applications. Access to menus is
via the
Setup mode by pressing EDIT and activating the Setup screen shown in Figure
2.0. Menu trees are provided for each of the 16 channels and another for system
variables. Select the desired menu by scrolling with
UP/DOWN and EDIT to enter the
menus.
2.1.1 Changing Menu Variables Using the Keypad
Upon entering a menu, a pointer controlled by the UP/DOWN keys indicates the
selected variable. Some are simple YES/NO or ON/OFF entries toggled by pressing
the EDIT key. Others, such as Measurement Name and Eunits fields may have many
ASCII character possibilities. Allowed ASCII characters are as follows:
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz blank space
!"#$%&`()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@.
EDIT places a cursor over the item and
UP/DOWN scrolls through each allowed entry. The NEXT key moves the cursor to the
next position within a field. When the field is complete, EDIT clears the cursor and
loads it into non-volatile memory where it is retained indefinitely. With no cursor
present,
NEXT closes open menus in reverse order and returns the LCD to the most
recent data display.
