2.6.3 HOW TO USE THE KEYPAD TO ENTER DATA
As shown previously, you use the four direction arrows to navigate through the Installation Menu
structure. The Installation Menu chart can be used as a “menu map” to show you exactly where you are
within the menu structure. When you arrive at a menu cell that requires data, you will have to perform
one of three data entry actions:
z
Select an item (or items) from a scrollable list of options (e.g., a class of liquids).
z
Provide a numeric value (e.g., a pipe outer diameter).
z
Provide an alphanumeric string (e.g., a file name for a site setup).
This section explains how to use the KeyPad to enter each type of data. The conventions used with
these instructions are:
z
Menus, Sub-menus and menu cell names will be enclosed in square brackets: e.g., [Pipe Data],
[Channel Enable].
z
The following symbols will be used to represent the direction arrows and the ENTER button:
Right Arrow
Left Arrow
Down Arrow
Up Arrow
Enter
How to Select Items from an Option List
This section shows how to select an item from an option list. The following example explains how to
change the current liquid type to [Diesel Fuel]. The left-hand figure below shows the [Select Liquid]
menu cell. Notice that the second line shows the current selection: [Water 20C/68F]. (The “greater
than”symbol placed before the parameter indicates that it is the current selection.)
NOTE: Use the menu chart to see how to get to the [Select Liquid] menu cell.
z
Press the symbol. Note that the (>) symbol changes to a colon (:) as shown in the figure below.
You have now entered the [Select Liquid] option list. You can use either the <Up or Down> Arrow to
scroll through the available choices. All option lists operate in a “wrap-around” fashion. This means
that when you arrive at the last item on the list, the next scroll places you back at the top.
