Operation
This chapter describes FOMi-E1/T1 front panel controls and indicators and
their functions. It also explains how to configure and operate the modem
LCD menu.
All the installation procedures described in Chapter 2 must be completed

3.1 Controls and Indicators
All controls and indicators are located on the front panel of FOMi-E1/T1. On
the master unit of FOMi-E1/T1 and on the PCU unit, there are three front
panel button switches: SCROLL, CURSOR, and ENTER (see
Figures 3-1 and 3-3). Using these switches, the user can toggle through the
menu displayed on the front panel LCD, change the system configuration, or
monitor the system status. Both the front panel of the FOMi-E1/T1 master
version and the PCU have an LCD with 2 rows, 16 characters each, for
displaying the user’s menu choices.
Table 3-1 lists the functions of each switch and indicator on FOMi-E1/T1
master and slave versions and on the PCU. The Item numbers in the table
correspond to the call-outs in Figures 3-1, 3-2 and 3-3.
