To change an item: 
 
1.  View the item using either the menu selection keys or 
the fast-path keys. 
 
2.  While the indicator arrow is beside an item press the 
Change/Save key. The indicated data item’s value will 
be displayed and will flash to indicate that it can be 
changed. 
 
3.  Use the Scroll keys to make the desired change. 
 
4.  After modifying a data item, press the Change/Save 
key again to record the change and exit Change mode. 
 
Special Use: While viewing any max/min. screen, press 
Change/Save key to view the Time/Date stamp for the 
max/min. item. 
 
Cancel/Reset Key 
 
The function of this key depends upon the function 
currently being performed: 
 
• If the microprocessor is in Change mode, press the 
Cancel/Reset key to exit the Change mode and cancel any 
changes. (The data item will revert to its previous setting.) 
 
• If you are viewing a max or min value, press the Cancel/ 
Reset key to reset the item to the present meter value. 
 
• If you are viewing Tapmax/Tapmin data items, press the 
Cancel/Reset key to reset them to the current tap position 
(see Section 5.7, <COUNTERS> menu). 
 
• If you are viewing an ALERT, press the Cancel/Reset key 
to acknowledge the Alert (see Section 5.8, <ALERTS> 
menu). 
 
Max/Min. Key  
 
Use this key to view max/min values for meter parameters. 
First view the desired data item, then press the Max/ Min 
key to view the maximum and minimum values.    
 
Max/Min. data items are displayed for a short period of 
time, after which the display returns to the current value. 
The length of this period can be selected by the operator. 
See Section 4.3.24, Min/Max Time Out. 
 
For example, if you wish to see the minimum load voltage 
since the last reset, use the Menu Selection keys to select 
Vld from the Meter Menu. The current voltage value is 
displayed on the screen. Press the Max/Min key. The 
minimum and maximum values will display for a short 
time.  
 
To clear max/min values, see Cancel/Reset Key 
description. 
 
To display max/min Time/Date stamp, see the Change/ 
Save key Special Use description. 
 
2.3.2 Fast-Path Keys 
Fast-path keys are shortcuts that provide direct access to 
frequently used data items. Once you have selected a data 
item with a fast-path key, use the Change/Save and Scroll 
keys to view and change the data item just as you would do 
with the menu selection keys. 
 
Many of the data items selected by the fast-path keys have 
both forward and reverse values. For example, if you press 
the fast-path key labeled “Voltage Level”, the data item 
“Fwd Volts” appears on the display screen. Press the key 
again to view the reverse value. “Rev Volts” is displayed. 
Press the key repeatedly to alternate the display between 
forward and reverse values. 
 
Regulation Setting Fast-Path Keys: 
Voltage Level Key 
 
The Voltage Level set point defines the output voltage you 
want the regulator to maintain. Use this key to view the 
Voltage Level set point. Once you display the Voltage 
Level, press the Change/Save key to modify the value. 
 
Bandwidth Key 
 
The Bandwidth set point defines a voltage range (on either 
side of the Voltage Level set point) which you consider to 
be acceptable. When regulator output voltage falls outside 
this value, the MJ-5 Control Panel activates the tap changer 
motor to restore the voltage to an in-band condition. 
Use this key to view the Bandwidth set point. Once you 
display the Bandwidth, press the Change/Save key to 
modify the value.
