Front Panel Controls and Indicators
•
When you press the ENTER push-button, the MX-2100 checks the validity of
the new value. If the selected value is valid, the MX-2100 displays CONFIG
ENTER, and the new value takes effect immediately.
•
If you make an incorrect selection, the selection is not accepted. In this case,
you see a CONFIG ERROR message with a two-digit code in the second
display row. The code indicates what is wrong. After a short time, the error
message disappears and you see the original display again. Now you can
correct the error.
If alarms are present in the alarm buffer and the configuration activities are
interrupted (that is, no push-button is pressed) for more than one minute, the
MX-2100 automatically exits the configuration state and shows the ALARM
BUFFER/SCROLL CLEAR message. Note that in such a case any changes made on
the display without pressing the ENTER key are discarded.
Appendix B, Alarms
, explains the codes and what to do to correct the error.
Chapter 5, Diagnostics
explains the use of the test options.
Checking Current Operating Configuration
Refer to
Chapter 3, Configuring MX-2100
for an explanation of the MX-2100
configuration parameters that can be modified from the front panel.
The following table provides instructions for displaying the current configuration
parameters (diagnostic and test functions are not included), and for modifying the
supervisory port parameters when necessary. The instructions are presented in a
step-by-step format, which will help you familiarize yourself with the use of front
panel pushbuttons.
If you only want to check the current configuration, without modifying any
parameters, do not press the ENTER push-button during the procedure described
below, to prevent any accidental change of parameters.
