i series e Hand Held Terminal – Local Mode
Getting Started. To get started using your Hand Held Terminal (HHT), go to a powered up i series e dimmer
rack and plug your Hand Held Terminal into the front of a control module. Please note that only one HHT
may be plugged into the HHT wiring system at a time. After the control module powers up and beeps, press
any key.
The HHT is used by viewing a sequence of screens. These screens allows you to view and in some
circumstance change the configuration of the dimmer racks.
The first screen you see after the control module is activated and through it's boot sequence are two help
screens. These screens are designed to give you some basic information about the use of the HHT....just
enough to get you going.

The Hand Held Terminal (HHT) utilizes a convention called soft keys. There are three softkeys, and they are
buttons [S1], [S2], and [S3] on the top of the keypad. The function of the softkeys is defined by the bottom
row of LCD text that is in brackets above each of the softkeys. If there is no text in brackets on the bottom
LCD row above the softkey, then that softkey does not have a function for that particular menu.

All text in the square brackets [ ] within the LCD menus refer to a key or softkey [S1] [S2] [S3] entry.
Additionally, throughout this users guide, the convention is that any button press on the keypad is
referenced by the name of the button within brackets. For example, if you were being directed to press the
config rack button, it would be so indicated as [CONFIG RACK], where the label on the button is within
square brackets.
If we're instructing you to activate one of the three soft key buttons as discussed in help screen #2, they
will be so indicated as (STAT) which from the main rack information screen is available from [S2]. Pressing
the button labeled [S2] activates the soft key (STAT) which actually shows you the current operating status
of the rack.
To skip these 2 help screens the next time you use the HHT, press [CONFIG RACK] as soon as the HHT
powers up. This will cause the HHT to jump to the main display menu.
Hand Held Operation Test & Verification
Next, lets check to see if your HHT is configured properly. Press and hold the [2] key switch. When a
control module receives a valid keyswitch entry from the HHT, it turns on the diagnostic LED. Look at the
