Damage to the color LCD display panel
caused by using a hard-pointed object or
other misuse may void your warranty on
the MTX5000 IDU.
When configuring your MTX5000 IDU, the following rules must
be observed:
• You can only select configuration settings applicable
to the hardware configuration and the licensed
options contained in your MTX5000 IDU.
• The MTX5000 IDU must not be placed in the transmit
mode when performing any procedures contained in
this Chapter.
5.2.5 Configuration Settings
New configuration settings can be prepared from scratch using
an existing factory default Preset or from a custom user Preset.
The factory default Presets and your custom user Presets must
be used as “make-froms” to prepare any new Preset from
scratch. Preset configuration settings may be prepared in either
the Local or Remote operating mode. Other advanced
operations must be performed in the Local mode only. Custom
user Presets can also be modified, as required.
Your MTX5000 IDU was delivered with 10 factory default
Presets. The factory default Presets cannot be changed or
deleted from your IDU. When preparing a new Preset, you must
first select a Preset to be used as a “make-from” to prepare the
new Preset configuration. If a factory Preset is inactive, the
licensed option is not contained in your IDU.
If you are preparing a new Preset configuration in the Local
mode and the licensed option is not contained in your IDU, the
option will be inactive (greyed-out) on the IDU color LCD display.
If you are preparing a new Preset in the Remote mode and the
licensed option is not contained in your IDU, a message window
indicating This preset cannot be selected. will be displayed on
the remote PC display. Only licensed options contained in your
IDU may be used to prepare new custom user Presets.
Once a Preset configuration is created or changed, it should be
saved. The IDU will remember the last operating state, but there
is no guarantee that it will remember the state unless the Preset
configuration settings are saved into the Preset list. The steps
required to save the settings are contained in the applicable
procedures.
