ACCESSING AND USING THE MENUs The resources are organized into 2 menus which are accessed as follows: • ‘Machine Status’ menu: press and release the key. • ‘Programming’ menu: hold down the key for 5 seconds. Either do not press any keys for 15 seconds (timeout) or press the key once, to confirm the last value displayed and return to the previous screen.
MACHINE STATUS MENU Access the Machine Status menu by pressing and releasing the key. If no alarms are active, the ‘SEt’ label appears. Use the keys to scroll through all the folders in the menu: - AL: alarms folder (only visible if an alarm is active); - SP1: Setpoint 1 setting folder;...

DIAGNOSTICS Alarms are always indicated by the alarm icon , the buzzer and the relay (if setting). To switch off the buzzer, press and release any key; the corresponding icon will continue to flash. N.B.: If alarm exclusion times have been set (see ‘AL’ folder in the parameters table) the alarm will not be signalled. ALARMs Label Fault...

TELEVIS SYSTEM The Televis remote control systems can be connected using the TTL serial port (TTL-RS485 BusAdapter 130 or 150 interface ICPlus module must be used). To configure the instrument to do this, you need to access the Add folder and use the dEA and FAA parameters. RS485 IMPORTANT! CHECK THE AVAILABILITY OF MODELS COMPATIBLE WITH REMOTE SUPERVISION SYSTEMS.
