Figure 10.3: iMAC2 Controller Operational Interface (Left Side)
iMAC2 Controller User Interface
The user navigates through the iMAC2
Controller’s menu structure using the Controller’s keypad. The
operation of the keypad’s buttons is as follows:
10.1.1 Function Keys: [F1], [F2], [F3] and [F4]
The four function keys initiate an action from the Controller. This can be a jump to another screen, a control
function (e.g. resetting a trip, start conveyor, stop conveyor etc.), modifying a parameter, programming an
iMAC module or setting up the Controller.
Each of the four function keys are assigned to each of the four display lines. The function key adjacent to
the display line can be used to execute that display line function.
10.1.2 [MENU] Key
The [MENU] key allows the user to navigate directly to the main menu of the iMAC2 Controller application
(SLP) software. From here it is possible for the user to navigate to a number of sub-menus using the [UP]
and [DOWN] arrow keys, in combination with the function keys [F1] to [F4]. The available sub-menus are
define
d by the Controller’s application (SLP) software and vary from one application software to another.
10.1.3 [ALARM] Key
The [ALARM] key allows the user to navigate directly to the alarm page, which displays any alarms or
important status messages. Arrows will appear on the left of the text, if any further information on this
particular alarm is available. This information can be accessed by pressing the relevant function key. The
alarm page messages are defined by the Controller’s application (SLP) software and vary from one
application software to another.
10.1.4 [ESC] Key
The [ESC] key allows the user to navigate backwards to the previous sub-menu. It can also be used to exit-
without-save when modifying parameters.

The Ethernet Reset Button is located on the
left side of the iMAC2 Controller’s enclosure.
Pressing and holding this button for a period
of 5 seconds will reset the iMAC Controller’s
Ethernet Settings to the factory default.

Ethernet Communications Manual for further
details.
