Navigating The Display - Emerson FLOBOSS S600 Instruction Manual

FloBoss S600 Instruction Manual
Generally, each data display page shows one or more data item(s) from the FloBoss S600 database along
with the associated text, units, and description.
Which data items can be modified depends upon the database configuration. A changeable (Read
Writable) data item is indicated by an asterisk (*) at the end of the display line. Prompts and messages
appear when you enter or edit data items. Display lines without asterisks are Read Only.
On the bottom line of every data display page is the Status/ID line. A typical Status/ID line is shown in
Figure 5-4.
On the left-hand side of the Status/ID line is the Page Reference Number. For example, P1.1 followed by
the number of associated data pages that can be navigated using the ◄ and ► keys.
The Page Reference Number indicates the location of a data item on the FloBoss S600 displays. One way
to understand the FloBoss S600 displays is to visualize the data items as if they were written on the
exterior of a very large cylinder. The Page Reference Number calls out the column on the cylinder,
followed by the row, in a "column.row" format.
In addition, the Status/ID line indicates whether the flow computer is in Prove mode or Maintenance mode
by displaying the characters P or M, respectively, on the right-hand side.

5.6 Navigating the Display

From the Main menu, select the option you require with the appropriate numerical key. An asterisk (*)
before a menu option indicates that further sub-menus are available. A decimal point ( . ) before the menu
option shows that there is no further sub-menu.
The Status/ID line on the bottom of the display changes as you move between data display pages.
Use the ◄ or ► keys to view the previous or next display. The number of the current display is indicated
after the decimal point on the Status/ID line.
NOTE: The ◄ key is also used as the delete/backspace key when entering or changing data.
Use the ▲ and ▼ keys to move from the data display pages of one menu item to the data display pages of
the previous or next menu item.
An alternative method of selecting the required data page is to enter the unique page address using the
Disp key. If you know the page reference number of the parameter (found in the Status/ID line) you wish
to view, proceed as follows:
Press Disp followed by the Page Reference Number in the format of "column.row," such as 1.3.
