DXP Correspondence Manual

The DXP is a menu-driven system, and many of the features are

Using The DXP

located in sub-menus. Each menu may contain several sub-menus, and

Menus

it will take you some time to become familiar enough with the DXP

that you know where all of the features are located (see

GCA4k1.12,

DXP

General Description, for a full description of the DXP features).

To maneuver through the DXP menus, enter the number that

corresponds with that feature.

Since several of the sub-menus have multiple pages, you may

often have to use the

“Cm-N”

to move to the next page and

“CTF&3”

to move to the previous page. Also, some menus

give you questions as options; these questions are usually

self-explanatory and the commands are easy to understand.

To return to the previous menu, select the item on the menu

that allows you to do this or press ESCAPE. To return to the

main menu, press CTRL-T.

You must separate successive entries for a single item with a

space or a comma. However, entries should never end in a

comma. You can enter many entries by specifying a range; for

example, entering

lOl-

1.50 includes all entries between 101

and 150.

While you may not know exactly where in programming a feature is

located, you can probably find the feature simply by looking at the

DXP main menu. The DXP programming is divided into several broad

classifications; these main menu classifications allow you to do all of

your associated programming together -system, station, and line, for

example.

Since the system operates on a lo-minute time-out cycle, you must

enter a selection or response within this time. If you don’t enter a

response within 10 minutes, the programming sequence is aborted and

the message

“Logout

Programming” appears on the screen. This

automatic log-off function acts as a safeguard to prevent tampering by

unauthorized persons.
