The local control panel is fastened to the controller card
by a hinged connector, and when installed is located in
the front center of the frame, positioned in front of the
power supplies. The panel consists of a display unit
capable of displaying two lines of text, each 16
characters in length, and five pushbuttons.
The panel is assigned to operate any card in the frame
by pushing the SELECT button on the front edge of that
card.
•Pushing the CONTROLLER button on the
control panel selects the Controller card itself.
•The STATUS LED on the selected card flashes
yellow.
The local control panel displays a menu that can be navigated using the four pushbuttons located beside the display.
The functionality of the pushbuttons is as follows:
[+] [–] Used for menu navigation and value modification
[SELECT] Gives access to the next menu level. When a parameter value is shown, pushing this button once
enables modification of the value using the [+] and [–] buttons; a second push confirms the new value
[ESC] Cancels the effect of parameter value changes that have not been confirmed; pushing [ESC] causes the
parameter to revert to its former value.
Pushing [ESC] moves the user back up to the previous menu level. At the main menu, [ESC] does not
exit the menu system. To exit, re-push the [SELECT] button for the card being controlled.
If no controls are operated for 30 seconds, the controller reverts to its normal standby status, and the selected card’s
STATUS LED reverts to its normal operating mode. If a parameter was changed on the card but not submitted
(SELECT was not pressed) and the 30 second timeout occurs, the parameters will be confirmed as if the SELECT key
had been pressed.
