4.1 PROGRAMMING TUTORIAL GUIDE
Before starting with the Tutorial, it is useful to understand that the unit has three
operating modes. These are :-
DISPLAY PROCESS VARIABLE MODE
MENU MODE
EDIT MODE
THE DISPLAY PROCESS VARIABLE MODE is the principal mode of
operation. From here, the Process Variable is displayed and all other modes are
accessed. The unit will always time-out back to this mode from any other mode of
operation.
THE MENU MODE gives the user access to the programmable parameters within
the unit. It is called a Menu Mode because the parameters are arranged in lists
according to their type.
THE EDIT MODE is entered into from the Menu Mode and allows the user to
inspect or modify a parameter value.
