Programming the Field Units
The field units can be programmed using the buttons
located behind the enclosure cover or using PDW
Manager. Because of the limited number of options
available for the field units, it is easier in most cases
to use the programming buttons.
When programming the field units using the program-
ming buttons, use the
menu
button to enter or exit
programming mode
, the
next
button to cycle forward
through menu options, the
previous
button to cycle
backward through menu options, and the
enter
button
to select the menu item or option you want. During
number entry, use the
next
button to select a digit and
the
previous
button to increment the selected digit.
Press the
display
button while in
run mode
to show
