The MC-III Main menu screen (Figure 4.15) is the conguration hub of the MC-III EXP. From the Main
screen, users can
• review all current instrument settings and ow readings
• check the log archive and instrument status
• access all submenus for changing congurable parameters

Figure 4.15—MC-III Main screen provides direct access to all menu functions using the scrolling menu bar at
the left side of the screen.
Data Display and Updates
Each time the software polls the instrument, a small icon appears briey in the lower left corner of the screen.
If the “Live Updates” checkbox in the lower right corner of the screen is checked, the instrument settings and
the LCD displays will automatically update with each poll.
“Live Updates” Checkbox
The “Live Updates” option is enabled by default. However, in the event that slow communication speeds are
used or the system times out frequently, the user can uncheck the “Live Updates” checkbox and periodically
query the system by clicking on the LCD graphic on the Main screen.
Reset Flow Total Button
The ow total can be reset to zero at any time by clicking on the “Reset Flow Total” button.
Scroll Bar
A scroll bar at the left side of the screen (Figure 4.15) gives the user easy access to any of seven conguration
menus and two log archive screens (see page 58 and page 59). Using these menus, the user can change all
congurable parameters of the instrument. Once the instrument has been congured, the Main screen access
should always be used for changing individual parameters while retaining all other conguration settings.
