Channels
The Channels menu is used to display and change the settings of the RF
devices installed in the unit. If multiple types of RF devices are installed,
you may be presented with an additional menu allowing you to select
between the different device types.
Once selected, you will be presented with a list of the devices and the
current settings. Depending on the capabilities of the unit (such as the
number of installed devices) there may be multiple display pages
associated with this menu. You can use the UP and DOWN keys to display
any additional pages.
Settings
The Settings menu allows access to the system setup parameters. These
include remote communication settings, addresses, and any configurable
hardware settings. If more options are available than displayed, the
additional settings may be accessed by using the DOWN key to scroll to
the next page.
Some changes made to system setup parameters in the Settings menu do
not take effect until the next system restart. If a change is made to one of
these settings, exiting the menu will prompt the user with the option to
restart the system. Depressing the SET key will restart the system and
load the new settings.
Command Status
The Command Status screen displays remote commands being sent via
any of the communication ports, along with the status of the current
command error queue. The displays are limited to the first 20 characters
of a message and will truncate additional characters
The unit is capable of receiving and executing commands faster than the display can update. To minimize the
impact that the display would have on command execution, the command display is only updated during idle
periods. The display may not update during periods of heavy activity and is provided as a status and
troubleshooting aid only.
The Error Queue displays the last entry in the error queue. Once an error
has been generated it will be continued to be displayed until the error
queue is read or cleared. Sending a valid command does not clear the
queue, so the error display may not reflect the result of the current
command.
Under normal operation, the Error Queue line should be empty indicating no errors.
About
The About screen displays the model number, firmware revision, unit
serial number and Ethernet MAC address.
