Chapter 4. Operation
4-1 Version 1.0b Mar 2003
4.1 Introduction
This chapter will go into the details of the specific configuration and operation of the
MULTIPLEXER UNIT. Broken into two parts, the first part outlines the procedures and
functions when using the integral LCD display with push-button menu keys. The second
section will outline the operation when using a VT-100 terminal connected to the RS-232
Console port. For rapid and more complete operation, a terminal connection to the Console
port is recommended.
4.2 LCD Menu Operation
All controls (push-button switches), LCD display and LED indicators are located on
the MULTIPLEXER UNIT front panel. The pushbutton switches are used to activate menu
selections and select parameter settings.
Use the ‘<' and ‘>' function keys to browse the menus and select parameters.
Use the ‘ESC' function key to return to a previous menu or to abandon setup.
Use the ‘Enter' function key to set a parameter of a selection or to enter a sub-menu.
When first powered on, the following "Administration" menu will be displayed. If a
password has been set, it must be entered to continue. The default password is "0000" (no
quotes), four zeros. Pressing an ARROW key at this point will give the option to administer
the remote site (as long as there is a valid optical link). Pressing the ENTER key at this
point will page the operator at the top of the 6 top level Menus. When administering the
local unit, the graphic "arrows" in the LCD display will display as solid black (??). While
administering the remote unit, the menu arrows will appear as "less than" and "greater than"
signs (< >). Pressing ESC from this menu will briefly display the unit's firmware
version number.
