Accessing And Leaving The Menu; How To Enter Data - Siemens SITRANS F Operating Instructions Manual

1.9.1 ACCESSING AND LEAVING THE MENU

Upon first turning the meter on you see a Siemens graphic. This means that there is no active site
setup currently stored in memory. Note that this screen identifies the software version of the meter on
the upper right-hand corner of the display.
Press the <MENU> key to invoke the Installation menu. The first time you access the Installation Menu,
you can leave it only by saving a site or by turning the meter off. After installing and activating a site, use
the <MENU> key to toggle between a graphic display screen and the last accessed menu location.

When you press the <MENU> key, the cursor arrives at the first level of the installation menu. See
screens above. The left screen is from a dual-channel model. The right screen, a single channel
model. The first left-hand item, [Meter Type], is highlighted (white type on black). [Meter Type] allows
you to choose a meter configuration from the highlighted right-hand column list. With single channel
models, the only option is [Single Channel]. The next left-hand selection is Meter Facilities. Use the
Meter Facilities Menu to set global meter options and controls.

1.9.2 HOW TO ENTER DATA

The left-hand column shows the menu cells. Another way to think about left-hand column items is to
consider them as menu questions. Then you can see that the right-hand column answers these ques-
tions. Right-hand column answers can be:
Another series of menu cells (may become left-hand column items when selected).
An item from a scrollable option list (e.g., a class of liquids).
A numeric entry (e.g., a pipe outer diameter).
An alphanumeric string (e.g., a site name).
