RC3050 Antenna Controller

3.1 Operation Overview

The functionality of the RC3050 is achieved by placing the controller in the desired mode of operation.
The figure shows the hierarchy of the RC3050's modes. Each mode has a unique display screen that
presents the information applicable to that mode's operation.
As the figure shows, there are two main groups of modes – operating and programming. Transitions
between modes within a group are initiated via a momentary press of the Mode key while a transition
between the two groups requires the Mode key to be held down for three seconds.
After installation the programming group of modes will typically not be used for day to day operations.
Sections 3.2 (operating modes) and 3.3 (programming modes) detail each mode.
