Section 5. CIRAS-3 Console Software
Overview
The CIRAS-3 console software is the most user-friendly and intuitive software we have designed to date.
All CIRAS-3 functions are accessed and implemented by the same easy-to-understand software structure
– Settings, Controls, Recording, Data Transfer, Diagnostics, Calibrations and other useful functions. The
CIRAS-3 Console software is the system’s command interface, based on function keys linked to first level
menus. Once you become familiar with how the menus are organized, navigation through menus
becomes simple – decide what you want to do and with a few key presses select your options from the
dialogs that you open.
The 8 function keys form the top level for menu selections. Function keys are context-sensitive, so as
you go deeper into a menu their assigned functions may change. Once a dialog is opened you typically
use the TAB key to quickly move through fields contained within the dialog. In the fields you enter values
with the numeric keypad or open a dropdown list and select an option from the list. DEL functions within
a field as a backspace key. OK confirms your selection from a dropdown list, while ESC closes the
dropdown list. Arrow keys are used to move up and down one item at a time within a list, or to move
horizontally to make selections from buttons that may be displayed. Select Accept and your dialog
changes are implemented by the hardware. Often you will be able to make customized changes or
perform essential functions with as few as three key presses.
