2.0 Front Panel: Data Entry & Display
The front panel includes an alphanumeric display and a membrane keypad to select operational
modes and alarm settings. The display is a two line, 20 character, liquid crystal display (LCD). The
display is backlit to allow easy viewing over a wide range of lighting conditions.
The keypad consists of seven keys whose function does not change. These keys are used for basic
control and programming of the SciPres
®
pressure monitor. The basic key definitions are:
MENU: Allows entry into the parameter settings menu.
ENTER: Accepts the selected parameter setting.
EXIT: Exits the menu, returning to the main operational screen.
SENSOR: Recaptures the factory calibration settings stored on the sensor, and allows entry into the
custom calibration menu. This allows the user to zero and/or custom calibrate the upper span value
using equipment traceable to SI through NIST.
ON/STBY: Turns the monitor on and off.
Up and Down arrows used to change parameters within the menus.
One LED is also on the front panel, on the ON/STBY key. This indicates the monitor is connected to
power.
