Understanding Parameter Types
Most DVSD / DVSE6800
+
parameters are adjustable, and can be set
using either card-edge controls (see
) or a software application. However, there are some
parameters that are considered “read-only” and cannot be changed.
Indicated by the abbreviation “
[RO]
,” these parameters provide status
and feedback information only.
Adjustable Parameters
Two types of adjustable parameters can be changed using the card-edge
controls:
•
Numerical
parameters—which require you to select a value within
a numerical range
•
Selectable
parameters—which require you to select a specific
option
Both numerical and selectable parameter changes are immediate.
Use the available 6800
+
software controls (serial / local or
Ethernet / remote network) to view and monitor parameter selections.
Read-Only Parameters
Many of the read-only parameters are also represented by LEDs on the
front of the module’s card edge. See
for the
location of these LEDs.
Operating Notes
When setting the control parameters on the DVSD / DVSE6800
+
,
observe the following:
•
When you change a parameter, the effect is immediate. However,
the module requires up to 20 seconds to save the latest change.
After 20 seconds, the new settings are saved and will be restored if
the module loses power and must be restarted.
