7.1.2 Activating the Keypad
Plug one end of the cable that was supplied with the keypad into the
receptacle on the bottom side of the keypad and the other end into the
receptacle on the lower right corner of the ESP300 front panel. The
ESP300 will detect the presence of the keypad. No user settings are
required.
Now, the keypad is ready for use. An easy way to verify proper
operation of the keypad is by sending the
VE command (type: VE
and hit ENTER). The ESP300 should respond with the current
version.
MACRO 1 runs PROGRAM 1
MACRO 4 runs PROGRAM 4
MACRO 2 runs PROGRAM 2
↵ ENTER
Pressing this key deletes a preceding character. Pressing it in
