6 •Common Keys and Commands Used for Programming XX190-10-XX Pilot Select
System Programming
System programming is performed from five major menus: Administration, Keypad/Receiver, Alarm Actions,
Time/Date/Titler and Video Switch Action. There is also an Install Defaults menu provided for Administrator
use. From the Administration menus, up to 32 users may be defined to the system by a unique login
identification number. The requirement that administrators input a passcode in addition to the login number
provides a second level of security. Each user is assigned a privilege level of operator, manager, or
administrator. Operators do not have access to the programming menus. Administrators have full access to
programming menus; managers have limited access. Comprehensive time, date, titling support is standard in
the control system.
You can also program the Pilot Select using the Configurator program.
In this manual, a Menu Path is used to show the sequence of choices used to display the menu under
discussion. The last paragraph of each section typically includes a Settings listing, which shows all possible
settings for the menu item, a Defaults listing where appropriate and a Keys listing.
Common Keys and Commands Used for Programming
Number Keys at top of Keyboard: Used to enter numbers such as User ID, etc.
+/- Keys on Numeric Keypad: Used to scroll through values for a filed.
Escape Key: Used to exit current menu and return to previous menu.
Enter Key: Used to accept values entered and save in system settings.
Cursor Up/Down Keys: Used to move between fields.
Main Menu
Every menu in the system is accessed through the Main Menu. System programming is performed from five
major menus: Administration, Keypad/Receiver, Alarm Actions, Time/Date/Titler and Video Switch Action.
Press the number of the menu item in order to enter that menu; for example, to enter the Alarm Actions
screen, press the “3” key on your programming keyboard. Note that you must use the number keys on the
main section of your keyboard - the number keys on the numeric keypad are typically not functional in the
system.

Note: On many of the programming screens, you will see “x / -” at the bottom of the screen. The “x / -”
instructions refer to the plus (+) and minus (-) keys, respectively, on your programming keyboard.
Administration
The Administration Menus are used to specify supervisory parameters such as user privileges, host computer
configuration and timed events. The Pilot Select allows three levels of user privilege that limit access to
specific programming screens and functions. Communication settings, such as the baud rate and parity, must
be set in order to transmit data through the host port. Scheduling of timed events and programming of
triggered events are also performed from Administration Menus.
To enter a submenu, enter the appropriate number for that menu item. To return to the previous menu, press
the Escape key.

Set User Profiles
User profiles contain the information necessary to identify each user in the system. The three privilege levels
are Operator, Manager, and Administrator. Operator privileges allow a user to operate the system but do not
allow access to programming screens. Typically, a configuration will contain more users with operator
privileges than with manager or administrator privileges. Manager privilege provides access to all
programming screens except for the Administration and Install Defaults menus. Note that if a manager logs
on to the system, the Main Menu will only display four menu selections. Administrator privilege permits
unrestricted access to all menus. Up to 64 users with unique profiles are allowed in a configuration; however,
only 3 users may have administrator privileges. After 3 Administrators have been defined, the Privilege
settings will be limited to Operator and Manager selections.
