Selector Area
The selector area allows you to select a new configuration panel under the menu area that you have
selected. You may select a single choice from several available for data to be displayed or configured.
The selector area options vary based on the menu you select.
Main Data Page
The main data page depends on what information the menu requires. Input fields are of two basic types:
• Text Fields into which data may be entered using the keyboard.
• Pull-downs from which one of several options may be chosen.
Input fields are black text on a white background. When you enter or select data, it does not go to the
controller, but is saved in the field until you click the Apply button. There may be fields that contain
buttons. Selecting a button does take immediate effect. Data may also be displayed.
