Menu Structure - Ametek California Instruments MX15 Series User Manual

4.2 Menu Structure

The next few pages show a map of the available menus in the MX15 Series. All menus can be
reached by repeatedly pressing the MENU key. Frequently used menus have a short cut key
that provides direct access. Examples of such menus are Program and Measurements. In any
case, there are never more than two levels of menus although some menus may be spread
across more than one screen.
At initial power up, the MX15 Series power supply will display important configuration information
in a series of power on screens. These displays are only visible for a short period of time and will
not re-appear until the next time the unit is turned on.
There are four screens that will appear in the same order:
1. LANetwork detection... At power up, the unit will try to detect a LAN interface. If not found, a
"LAN not available" message will appear. The LAN will not be detected if:
1. No –LAN option is installed.
2. The USB port is connected to a computer.
3. The RS232 port jumper is installed.
This process may take several seconds.
2. Initialization in progress. This means the firmware has started to load.
3. Company and firmware information. Displays the manufacturer - Cal Inst., which is short for
California Instruments - and the firmware part number and revision. The firmware part
number starts with CIC followed by a three-digit code and dash number. The firmware
revision has a major revision before the decimal point and a minor revision after the decimal
point.
4. Model and Serial number information. The model will be a function of the configuration and
will include the series designation (MX). The serial number is a 5-digit number. This number
should match the model type sticker located on the back of the unit.
