Torr, overcurrent protection will turn the
sensor off. If the sensor is in Menu Control mode, then a command to turn on the sensor will need
to be sent via communication or through the front panel to toggle the high voltage on again. If Pin
Control is enabled, then the unit will attempt every to turn the high voltage on every 60 seconds until
overcurrent protection does not occur.
2.4 Menu Navigation
The MX7M contains many operator customizable features. Changing these features is possible through
the menu or via RS-485 or USB communications. To navigate the menu simply use the buttons found
on top of the MX7M . The four buttons include the SEL button, an UP arrow, a DOWN arrow, and an
ENT button. Using the SEL button allows the operator to change between menu categories. Using the
ENT button allows the user to enable value editing and save values in addition to toggling between
options where appropriate. Using the UP and DOWN arrows allows navigation through menu options.
The UP and DOWN arrow buttons are also used to edit values.
