Replacing the standard message (like the one at the top left) with one using
descriptive words to characterize specific events is clearly in the best
interests of the Central Station's operators (and is illustrated in several
examples beginning on page 2-23). In this parameter, each of the default
words in the table above can be re-programmed to better describe the event
(at the bottom left) and be used instead of the basic numeric Reporting
Codes (0 through 9) employed in the slots in a particular CP-220A.
On the display (see page 2-19), movement between the
Slot Number,
the
Code Number,
and the
respective words
may be accomplished with the
and
keys as shown in the following procedure:
Programming Procedures:
1. Note that after entering
PARAMETER 28,
[SLOT 1 CODE 0 ZERO]
appears on the display and
Slot Number 1
is flashing. If it's desired to
program descriptive words for Slot 1, proceed to the next step. To select
another slot, press the key (between
2
and
8
) representing the desired
slot number.
2. Press
the once to advance the flashing cursor to the [0] after [CODE].
If it's desired to change the custom word for
Code 0,
proceed to the next
step. To select another Code Number (between 1 and 9), press the key
representing it.
3. Press
the once to advance the cursor to the first letter of the word
displayed at the right of the Code Number. To change the word to that
which is desired, press the
NEXT
key, one push at a time. Doing so
takes the first character incrementally through the following sequence
of characters, which repeats itself:
• letters of the alphabet
• blank space
• numbers 0 through 0
NOTE 1: The
MANUAL/PREVIOUS
key may be pushed momentarily to
move backward through the set of characters if it's easier to reach
the desired selection that way.
NOTE 2: If the
NEXT
or the
MANUAL/PREVIOUS
keys are held down
rather than released after being depressed, it's possible to scroll
forward or backward through the selections in increments of
approximately 5 characters at a time.
4. When the appropriate character is displayed, press the
to move the
cursor to the next letter. Once again, use the
NEXT
key or the
MANUAL/PREVIOUS
key, as described, to select the desired character.
