and outputs are via rear panel connectors.

Front Panel Description
Front Panel Display, Navigation Keys, Softkeys, Keyboard
The Encoder provides a keypad and softkeys to access and input data.
There are two LED indicators, located on the left of the front panel (see
Figure 1.4).
The front panel display and navigation keys/softkeys/keyboard are used as
a local control method to set up and configure the Encoder (see Chapter 4,
Operating the Equipment Locally). They can also be used as a quick
method for accessing the status of the equipment.

Indicator Colour Description
Alarm
Red
This LED is lit when an alarm condition has been detected by the Encoder.
Power
Green
This LED is lit when power is being received by the Encoder.
Power Supply Stand-by Switch
The use of this switch puts the Encoder into stand-by mode. It powers
down the supply rails of the display and internal circuits within the unit.
The switch type avoids accidental powering-down of the Encoder. For
normal use ensure that the I is always at the top (see Figure 1.3).
WARNING…
THIS IS NOT A MAINS SWITCH AND DOES NOT ISOLATE THE ENCODER FROM THE POWER
SUPPLY.
