Chapter 3. Operation
3.3 Using the
Display
The Model GC868 display is divided into a left pane and a right pane. The two screen
panes can be set independently to display any of the available measurement or
diagnostic parameters. The components of a typical measurement mode screen
are shown in Figure 3-2 below.
Figure 3-2: Display Screen Components
Both panes of the display screen are continuously updated, but only one pane at a
time may be programmed or changed. To select a pane, press the corresponding
side of the
[SCREEN]
key on the keypad. The currently selected screen pane will have
function names in the option bar, while the other screen pane will have a blank
option bar. See the
Programming Manual
for detailed instructions on using the
keypad.
As shown in Figure 3-2 above, each pane of the display screen is divided into the
following three general areas:
•
the locator bar
•
the prompt area
•
the option bar.
The upper portion of the screen pane is called the
locator bar
. While the meter is
taking measurements, the locator bar displays the name of the currently selected
site file. In addition, the locator bar identifies the task that is currently being
performed and the status of that task. For example, pressing the
[PROG]
key on the
keypad will cause the locator bar to display
“PROGRAM”
and
“Start”
to indicate that
the meter is ready to be programmed from the start of the
User Program
.
At various times, one or more of the following four symbols may be displayed on the
far right of the locator bar:
•
‰: This symbol, which is called the
pointer
, indicates that additional option bar
entries are available. These options can be accessed by using the
[
←
]
and
[
→
]
keys.
•
*: A flashing asterisk indicates that the Model GC868 is currently logging
information. See the
Programming Manual
for instructions on creating a log file.
•
S or S
L
: This symbol indicates the status of the red
[SHIFT]
key. “S” indicates that
the
[SHIFT]
key is activated for the next keystroke only, while “S
L
” indicates that
the
[SHIFT]
key is locked. See the next section for instructions on using the
keypad.
•
T: This symbol indicates that the Model GC868 is currently totalizing data.
The middle portion of the screen pane is the
prompt area
. This area displays data,
graphs, and logs in measurement mode and menu prompts in programming mode.
In addition, error code messages, which are described in the
Service Manual
, are
displayed in the prompt area.
