3.4 Programming Hexadecimal Data

Hexadecimal or "Hex" digits are often required for a

programming item, such as telephone numbers and

reporting codes. To insert a Hex digit into a given entry,

press the [*] key to enter the Hex menu. Use the arrow

keys to scroll through the each Hex digits (A through F).

When the desired letter is displayed, press the [*] key.

Hex digits can also be entered by pressing [*] key fol-

lowed by the number from 1-6 corresponding to each

Hex letter (A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, up to F = 6). Once the digit

is entered, the control panel will automatically return to

the decimal programming mode.

For example, to enter data 'ABCD' on a PC4020 you

would enter: [*], [1], [*], [2], [*], [3], [*], [4]

Many programming items are toggle options that are

either enabled or disabled. Use the arrow keys (< >) to

scroll through the toggle options. Press the [*] key to

switch back and forth between [Y]es (enabled) and [N]o

(disabled). Once all the toggle options have been pro-

grammed, press the [#] key to save your changes and

return to the previous menu.
