MODEL 2500 REMOTE FRONT PANEL
The DANIEL INDUSTRIES MODEL 2500 INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEM
MICROCOMPUTER remote front panel is an external terminal connected to the
MODEL 2500 by means of a serial port. The same functions that are possible on
the front panel of an on-site MODEL 2500 are also possible with the remote front
panel. However, only one front panel may be active at a given time.
Activation of the remote front panel is made possible by assigning it to a serial port
using one of the PORTUSE selections in the Serial Ports sub-menu. Control is
returned to the front panel of the on-site unit from the remote front panel by
changing the PORTUSE selection to an option other than the remote front panel.
Selecting the remote front panel or returning control to the front panel of the
on-site unit may take as long as 30 seconds before the operation is complete. The
remote front panel responds more slowly than the front panel of the on-site unit to
both keyboard entry and display refreshing.
When the remote front panel is selected, the LCD screen of the on-site unit
displays the following message:
REMOTE FRONT
PANEL SELECTED
_________________________________________________________
NOTE!
If the remote front panel fails when the remote unit is
in control or if for some other reason, communications
is lost between the on-site unit and the remote front
panel, control can be returned to the front panel of the
on-site unit by simultaneously pressing the zero,
decimal, and minus keys.
