Front Panel Operations
This section of the manual explains, on a task-by-task basis, the operation of
the Imagestore using only the front panel controls. Each task is fully detailed,
making reference to other sections unnecessary.
Controls
All of Imagestore's operational and configuration features can be monitored
and controlled from the front panel of the unit using the pushbuttons and
display. A simple menu-driven procedure provides access to the operational,
configuration and set-up options.
The front panel of Imagestore contains a 3½ floppy disk drive, four push-
button control keys and a vacuum fluorescent display (VFD). Local control
of the unit is "menu driven" using a combination of the push-button keys
together with options displayed on the VFD. The upper key of the group is
identified on the panel as the escape key and the bottom key is identified as
the enter key. Left and right keys W X are used to move a cursor left and
right accordingly to select menu options.
VFD Display
The alphanumeric VFD display is divided into two separate lines. The upper
row of characters indicating the function and the lower row indicating the
current selection and any optional configuration changes that are available.
Where there are more options available than there is room for on the display,
the symbols < and > are used to indicate that other options exist to the left
