Programming
Overview This chapter provides a basic understanding of the programming keypad
built into both the SMC Dialog Plus controller and the optional Bulletin
1201 human interface modules. This chapter also describes programming
the controller by modifying the parameters.
Keypad Description The keys found on the front of the SMC Dialog Plus controller are
described below.
Escape
Pressing the Escape key causes the programming system to move
up one level in the menu structure.
Select
The Select key has two functions:
• Pressing the Select key alternately causes the top or bottom line
of the display to become active (indicated by flashing first
character).
• In parameter modification with series A FRN 3.00 or greater and
series B human interface modules, Select moves the cursor from
the least significant digit to the most significant.
Up/Down
Arrows
These keys are used to increment and decrement a parameter value
or to scroll through the different modes, groups and parameters.
Enter
When pressed, a mode or group will be selected, or a parameter
value will be entered into memory. After a parameter value has
been entered into memory, the top line of display will automatically
become active, allowing the user to scroll to the next parameter.
Programming Menu Parameters are organized in a four-level menu structure for straightforward
programming. Figure 4.1 details the programming menu structure and the
four-level hierarchy.
