above the top item of the second page then the bottom item of the first page of the Top
Menu is displayed.
This is indicated by ↑up and ↓down arrows next to the top and bottom menu items
respectively, if this kind of multi-page menu scrolling is available. Not all menus are
longer than one page, and therefore do not contain these arrow indicators.
The Top Menu is the first menu that is encountered and the last menu before
returning to the status display. Every menu item selected from the Top Menu drives
another nested menu or item that must be exited to bring the Top Menu back. Let's
examine the Top Menu:

The asterisk to the left of the menu item row indicates where the cursor is. As you
advance the cursor down the list by activating the down (left) arrow control, the asterisk
moves to indicate the newly highlighted menu item row, just as the asterisk moves up as
you activate the up (right) arrow control. When you activate the Enter/Select control, that
menu item is selected and the menu listed on that menu item row is display. This Top
Menu will be returned to the display once the newly selected menu is exited.
The purpose of the Top Menu is to place the most important, quick access items
up front to the user first. For example, if you want to eject the flash card immediately
without incurring data loss or corruption, you would select this. If you want to display
information about the SEC 3120 unit or attached sensors, you would select the
Information Menu.
To leave the Top Menu and return to the main status screen, simply scroll down to
the Exit Menu Item and select it. Menu timer time's key activations, and once it expires
(typically 30 seconds), the menus are automatically exited and the main status screen is
re-displayed.
