This section introduces you to the basics of operating the TG8000. Common
module functions are discussed here, while module-specific functions are
discussed in the module-specifc sections of this manual. This section contains the
following topics:
Front-panel controls
Rear-panel connectors
About the frame reset signals
Note for format settings
The following figure shows the locations of the front-panel controls. A brief
discussion of each feature follows the illustration.
The LCD display is a two-line, 40-character-per-line display. Almost all menus
have two lines of text, where the first line shows the current position in the
current menu, and the second line shows the current selection (if there is not a
submenu). If nothing is on the second line, press the ENTER button to access
the corresponding submenu.
You can adjust the contrast of the LCD display using the UTILITY submenu.
(See page 2-27, UTILITY submenu.)
Use the MODULE button to select the mainframe or installed module to control.
Repeatedly pressing this button scrolls through the main menu, which shows the
mainframe and the installed modules. Select the one you want to control.
