MAGNET POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM 9100

DANFYSIK A/S - DENMARK.
3.2.1 Main power ON / OFF and interlock RESET
The basic function on the M-panel is to turn the power supply ON / OFF and to RESET
pending interlocks. All controlled from a single button. For further information about the
button locations, see chapter 3.2.3 Front Panel Control.
Setting the output current is done through one of the pull down menus described in the next
chapter.
When the power supply is ON the LED in the button area will illuminate.
When the power supply is OFF the LED in the button area will illuminate.
If an interlock is present the LED inside the RESET button will illuminate.
Pressing the RESET button will clear the interlocks that are not due anymore.
Hint: If an interlock is present, it will also be represented on the display at the lower right
corner.
Hint: The color of the LEDs can be reprogrammed to illuminate green, red or
“orange”.
3.2.2 Using the Manual Panel Menus
This chapter shortly describes the use of the M-Panel Graphical. The menus themselves will be
described later.
The user interface of the M-Panel Graphical is based upon pull down menus. To display the
menus simply press the MENU button (if not already standing in the Menu window).
To prevent unnecessary hiding of the main display (set current, output current and voltage) the
pull down menus are always displayed left aligned. In other words, it is the menu bar that rolls
over the pull down region.
With visible menu bar, activating the “” or “” arrow buttons the menu bar always displaying
the selected pull down menu at the left side will rotate. At the bottom right is a help text,
showing what the selected pull down menu group is used for. To select one of the lower menu
items the “” or “” arrow buttons must be used. Also here a help text at the bottom right of
the display will tell what the selected menu will do. If a menu has a sub menu it will be shown
with a right arrow to the right of the menu text. This sub menu can be accessed by pressing the
right “” arrow. Having found the desired menu it can be entered by pressing the “” Enter
key (The selected menu is shown inversed). If the chosen menu has a parameter to be edited a
pop up window will be shown with the parameter (as the set current menu), if the menu only
contains data to be shown a pop up window will be displayed with the data (as in the Interlock
menus) or if the menu is a command (as the REMote or the LOCal) then the task will be
executed immediately and the cursor will stay at its position. A pop up window is exited by
pressing the “” Enter key again.
The above in short, one can say: The menu bar is entered with the MENU key end exited again
with the MENU key (back to default window). A pop up window is entered with the “”
Enter key and exited again with the “” Enter key. Just like parentheses in equations.
