Operation guide
VII.1
Starting the unit
Once the power switch is turned on, the starting sequence takes place. This
sequence takes about 30 seconds, and as soon as it finishes, the display shows
the main screen.
From the display it is possible to obtain information about the selected network,
as well as the line status and decoder status. These are the different line status
for PortaNet:
“IDLE”
The link line is available but it hasn’t been made any connection.
“DOWN”
There is no link line plugged into the unit. The cable is not plugged
in correctly or there is an fault on the line.
VII.2
Checking the configuration – the inf key
This key provides the user with a simple and quick way to display detailed
information about the status and configuration of the PortaNet. As the screen is
not able to display all the information at once, you can cycle through the
different information screens by repeatedly pressing the INF button. These
screens are:
1.
Battery load information.
2.
Audio input VU meters.
