Alphanumeric
Display
The FS2's control system is designed to be quick and easy to use. The four-line
alphanumeric display shows menus that are numbered and grouped by function. The
menu groups are easily accessed using pushbuttons which correspond one-to-one with
the groups (one button per menu group). The menu lines, which are 23 characters wide,
display the following information:
• Fi
rst line—parameter number and name.
• Second l
ine—the editable value set for a parameter.
• Thir
d and fourth lines—current status, labels, or prompts.
When you edit a parameter containing multiple values, such as the IP address, the value
curr
ently being edited blinks.
Operational Summary The 10 front panel pushbuttons allow you to select display menu groups. The two knobs
allow you to change menus and set parameters within the menu groups. These functions
can be summarized as follows:
• Select a menu group: Press one of the ten pushbuttons.
• Scroll through menus in a group: Turn SELECT.
• Edit a menu parameter: Stop SE
LECT on the menu.
• Change a parameter value: Once the parameter is selected with SELECT, tur
n ADJUST to
set the value. Changes apply in a few seconds.
• To edit a multiple part parameter, suc
h as the IP address, push the ADJUST knob
momentarily (the value blinks). To save the whole parameter after editing, push
ADJUST momentarily again.
• Coarse adjust a value: Hold down the menu g
roup button (the button turns blue) and
turn ADJUST.
• Undo a change (restore previous setting): Push SELECT mo
mentarily.
• Reset to factory default: Hold down AD
JUST for 4 seconds.
Pushbuttons These are the general rules of Menu Group button operation:
• Press one of the ten Menu Group buttons to access
the associated menu group. The
SELECT and ADJUST knobs control the display menus.
• The selected Menu Group button lights and the other buttons turn off.
• Each menu group returns to the last menu chan
ged when you select the button. After a
reboot, each group displays its first menu.
