Once you scroll to the end of a list, the items will wrap to the top or bottom and begin the
list over again. Wrapping is only available from the card edge. Parameters that normally
wrap when adjusted via the card edge will clip when adjusted using a control software
application.
Operation Notes
When using a Platinum module, observe the following operation notes:
Although the effect of a parameter change may appear to be immediate, the module
requires 20 seconds to save the latest change. If another change is made during these
20 seconds, the first parameter change and the second parameter change will not be
saved until 20 seconds after the second parameter change. There is no limit to the
number of changes that can be made within 20 seconds of each other. However, none
of these changes will be saved until 20 seconds after the last parameter change.
Each module automatically sets its parameters to the ones saved last.
CAUTION
Failure to observe these Operation Notes will result in accidental changes to the
module's parameter settings.
Card-Edge Screen Saver
After 20 minutes of inactivity, the VFD on a Platinum module automatically shuts off. To
reactivate the VFD, press any button or toggle switch on the module. The screen saver
mode is a step; therefore, no parameter changes will take effect when you "awaken" the
VFD using one of the card-edge controls. However, the parameter changes will take effect if
you press the Enter button twice while the display is being awakened.
Controllable Parameters List Appearance
The Controllable Parameters list is a multilevel structure that includes all of the available
parameters, arranged into groupings. Parameters with the abbreviation [RO] are
"read-only."
Platinum frame default settings are listed on page 388.
Platinum application parameters are listed on page 389.
Platinum fail-safe parameters are listed on page 389.
Parameters lists for each individual module are listed with the module's detailed
description.
Navigating the Parameters List
Note: If you do not want to make changes to your settings, return to the previously
selected item in the list, and then press Escape to move up a level.
To navigate, and then view or change a parameter, follow these steps:
1
Open the front panel of the frame.
2
Press any card-edge control button or the toggle switch to turn on the VFD display. The
module name will appear as the banner on the card-edge display screen.
