There are three types of setup parameters - parameters that require a value to be keyed in, parameters that
require a numeric entry representing one selection from a list of choices and parameters that require the
entry of an operating parameter.
K
EY-IN VALUE PARAMETERS
A key-in value parameter requires a number or name to be entered. The entry will appear as the new
parameter value exactly as it was keyed in.
To change the value of a key in parameter, simply key in the desired value and press [ENTER].
For example,
[3] [0] [ENTER]
will change the full scale capacity to 30.
SELECTABLE VALUE PARAMETERS
A selectable value parameter requires the entry of a numeric value that corresponds to a selection from a list
of choices. The number entered will be displayed to the right of the parameter number and the lower portion
of the prompting display will show the text equivalent of the selection. Examples of selectable value
parameters are units (P131), baud rate (P200) and beeper volume (P460).
Access the parameter that you want to change. In this example we will use parameter 200.
If you know the number of the selection it can be keyed in. For example you want the baud rate to be 57600
and you know the selection number is 11.
Key in
[1] [1] [ENTER]
The baud rate will change to 57600. If you don't know the selection number you can press [ENTER] to
scroll sequentially through all selections.
OPERATING PARAMETER ENTRY PARAMETERS
Some setup parameters require the entry of an operating parameter (see Chapter 7 for a complete list of
operating parameters). The entry will appear as the name of the referenced parameter. Examples of setup
parameters requiring operating parameter entries are select modes (P300), database columns (P701) and
P11)
