ALPHANUMERIC KEYS AND SHIFT KEY
The Alphanumeric Keys (also referred to as the keypad) are used to input
numeric parameters during setup and calibration and customer-defined
IDs.
The Shift LED is located below the Auto LED on the faceplate.
Pressing the Shift Key toggles the Shift LED on and off. The effect is
described below:
•
Shift LED not illuminated — pressing an Alphanumeric Key
types the number shown on the key.
•
Shift LED illuminated — pressing an Alphanumeric Key types a
letter labeled above the key. Pressing the key repeatedly
toggles the display through the three letters labeled above the
key. When the desired letter is displayed, pressing the Enter
Key or a different Alphanumeric Key advances the cursor one
space to the right. See
The Enter Key has several functions:
•
The Enter Key is used to save in memory any parameter set up in the menus. For example, if you enter
an operating span value in the Main/Calibration/Span Menu, pressing the Enter Key saves it to memory.
The value remains in memory until a new value is entered.
•
When entering a vessel ID, the Enter Key advances the cursor one space to the right.
•
When the SonoTracker Series controller is vessel monitoring in Manual Mode, pressing the Enter Key
toggles the display from numerical format to bar graph format. The display remains in the bar graph
format (even when the controller is turned off and back on again) until the Enter Key is pressed to toggle
back to the numerical format.
SENSOR KEY
The Sensor Key allows you to copy parameters to a different channel while remaining in a particular menu function.
For example, assume the display is showing this screen for channel 2 under the Main/Calibration/Span Menu:
