LCD Command Menu

The LCD Command Menu provides commands for controlling some of the NetGuardian's basic functions:
temporarily silencing the alarm speaker, rebooting the unit, and running the TTY configuration utility.

version and the Standard Prompt, Press MENU for front panel options. (See Figure 7.3.1,

Sound off

Only windows with alarms will appear on the LCD. If no alarms are
active, a "no alarms active" message will appear. The LCD Delay Time is
how long you want the points to show on the screen. You can set the
delay time from 1-60 sec (default is 2 sec.) This is configurable from the
TTY command line interface or the web interface.
Using the Front Panel LCD buttons for Point Mode
Pressing the SEL, p, or q buttons will force the NetGuardian back into
Scroll Mode for 3 minutes. This is particularly useful for viewing the
configured descriptions or analog values associated with the active alarms.
When Point Mode is enabled, but you chose to go into Scroll Mode, press
the MENU button twice to go back.
See section "New! TTY Command Mode" for instructions on enabling /
disabling Point Mode.
