6
THE MAIN MENU
The various parts of the configuration section are grouped under the headings of the
main configuration menu. These menu headings are used as the headings for the
manual sections that follow.
GENERAL FORMAT SETUP
This section covers the general format of the printed text, graphs and display.
SELECT LANGUAGE allows you to choose the language that will be used for all the text
and displays. The language you choose comes into use at once and applies to all
the monitors used with this playback unit. Some of the older 100 Series PU monitors
are programmed with French language text and displays. When these monitors are
used with the RPC-80 they produce text and displays in the language set here by the
SELECT LANGUAGE menu.
SELECT DECIMAL POINT offers a choice of two number display formats using the dot
(99.9) or the comma (99,9) to separate the integer part from the fractional part of the
number. No separators are offered between the thousands. The chosen format
applies to all printed output, displays and pre-processed data output on the External
Link.
SET GRAPH FORMATS leads you into the settings for all the graph variables and
introduces the idea of user formats.
User formats
The RPC-80 is supplied with all the format details pre-set to standard values and you
do not need to change any item that you are happy with or that does not apply to
your installation. Just press the OK button when you are shown an item and it will
remain as it is. Remember that when you are first shown an item the display will
show the current setting or value of that item.
PU user
FORMAT FOR PU USER sets up the graph format for use with PU monitors.

customers at the time of purchase. When these monitors are used with the RPC-80
they produce all output in the units set here by the UNITS menu.
