STOW Mode

2.1.1.4
After pressing the <STOW> button from MENU mode, the RC4080 will automatically transition into STOW
mode. STOW mode will provide the same axis status information as described in the MANUAL mode
section (2.1.1.2). The <STOP> key will allow the user to end the stow operation and return to MENU
mode.
Additionally, STOW mode provides for the status of the stow sequence. In the image above, the RC4080
is reporting that an operation to move the antenna to the stow. The other message that would be
displayed is a stow complete message.
Once the stow operation finishes, the RC4080 will return the user to MANUAL mode. This will allow the
user to continue to see the appropriate status information for the antenna.

When in this mode, the RC4080 touchscreen will provide a simulated 4x40 LCD display and a 4x4
keypad. Full operation from this screen can be found in the front panel operation section (2.1.2).
