Introduction To Lcm Display; Basic Operation; Detailed Menu Options - Moxa Technologies NPort 5000 Series User Manual

Typically, you will use either NPort Administrator or the web console to configure the NPort 5600-8-DT
series (standard temperature models), NPort 5600 series (standard temperature models) and
NPort 5410/5430 series (standard temperature models). These are not the only options for
configuration. For basic onsite configuration, you can use the LCM console built into the device server,
without requiring a connection to the network or a laptop.
In this chapter, we will introduce the basic operation and menu options of LCM display.

Basic Operation

If the NPort is working properly, the LCM panel will display a green color. The red Ready LED will also light
up, indicating that the NPort is receiving power. After the red Ready LED turns to green, you will see a
display similar to:

There are four push buttons on the NPort's nameplate. Going from left to right, the buttons are:
Button Name
menu menu
up cursor

down cursor

sel select
The buttons are manipulated in a manner similar to the way a modern cellular phone operates. As you move
through the various functions and setting options, note that the top line shows the current menu or
submenu name, and the bottom line shows the submenu name or menu item which is activated by pressing
the SEL button.

Detailed Menu Options

The best way to explain all of the NPort's LCM functions is to refer to the tree graph shown in the next page.
There are three main levels—1, 2, and 3—with each level represented by a separate column. The first thing
to remember is that the menu button is used to move back and forth between the LCM panel's default
screen, and main menu screen:
