The Menu System
The menu system is divided into a `tree’ structure with 9 “MENU LEVEL” main menus.
Consider these main menus to be at Menu Level 1 (refer to the
The Menu System Map, page 6-8). Parameters
contained in Menu Level 1 are the most frequently used, as you descend the menu levels the parameters are less
frequently used.
The Keypad has selectable “viewing levels” which can restrict the view of the Remote menu system, refer to
"
Selecting a Menu Viewing Level", page 6-17.
Below is a simple description of the main menus:
• DIAGNOSTICS: a view of important diagnostic parameters.
• SETUP PARAMETERS: contains all the function block parameters for setting-up the Drive.
• PASSWORD: contains all the Password parameters required for security.
• ALARM STATUS: a view of the alarm diagnostic parameters contained in the FUNCTION BLOCKS menu.
• MENUS: allows full or reduced menu displays on the Keypad, and selects the display language.
• SERIAL LINKS: contains all the parameters for external communications set-up and operation.
• SYSTEM: contains all the parameters for I/O configuration.
• PARAMETER SAVE: save the application/parameters.
• CONFIGURE DRIVE: a view of the important parameters used when setting-up the drive.
• FUNCTION BLOCKS: a view of all available function blocks, as seen in the Configuration Tool.
