Selecting / altering program data
In order to alter a particular parameter, it first needs to be located; navigating through program data
pages will eventually show the parameter that is requested to be modified. Inside its programming page
the desired parameter is selected by:
•
First moving the selection bar using S3 until that parameter is highlighted
•
Then clicking S4 to confirm this parameter is going to be programmed.
Once selected, that parameter will either start blinking least significant digit if it is a numerical
parameter, or the entire parameter will blink if it is a parameter that may be altered between a defined
number of options (as would be
“enabled / disabled”).
Numerical values may be adjusted as described above ( Entering numerical values ). The panel will check
any numerical value against certain limits and will not accept it if it does not match. If recently entered
value was found outside limits the panel will, after that value was entered by clicking S4, immediately
enter blinking mode again, asking for new entry. For parameters with pre-selectable options these
options may be circled around by clicking S3. After adjusting to the desired option this needs to be
confirmed by clicking S4.
Once a parameter has been altered it will stop blinking. Selection bar now may be moved to another
parameter or to “Next page” option to continue w
ith programing.
Whatever modifications are applied to the control system it should be noted that at first these are all
temporarily just stored in the control panel. Continuing to last programing page and selecting data to be
saved to VCS will finally cause actual parameters in the VCS to be overwritten. After programing data
into its memory the control system will perform a power-cycle without any user intervention.
While in programming mode the entire system may be powered down at any time. In such case data in
the control system will not be modified, any parameters modified in this programming round will be
lost.
Program
panel
Unlike Display settings this menu addresses more basic panel
functions. It allows the user to enable/disable fire boy input and
to select some NMEA specific settings.
After programming both limes the panel will jump back to basic
display page 1.
Program
date/time
Control panel GP178 has a battery-backed RTC keeping track of
calendar date/time. This time is retrieved by the VCS to track
date and time of logging. As with
“Program panel” menu, lines to
be programmed are not selectable but need to either be
accepted (S4) or altered the same way as numerical values get
altered (S2/S3). Once “Minutes” was updated the control panel
will jump back to basic display page 1.
