3.10 SELECTION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE SERVICE PROGRAMMES
3.10.1 HOW TO SELECT A SERVICE PROGRAMME
In order to help the operator, and the service engineer during installation or repair, the RE2100 has some
built-in service programmes.
The RE2100 has a service mode, which is activated by pressing the keyboard buttons 1 and 0
simultaneously. The display of the RE2100 will now show ‘SP-’.
The various service programmes can now be selected by keying-in a three digit number. The display of
the RE2100 will then show ‘SP-XX-X’.
A new service programme may be chosen after the keyboard button ENT has been pressed once. The
display shows ‘SP-’ again, and a new three digit number can be keyed-in.
In order to return to normal operation mode, press the keyboard button TUNE/CLARIF.
