Front Panel User Guide Page 7
There are 3 typical pushbutton operations. A selection press, a utilize press, and an activation press.
1. Selection press – This is a press of the button and release within 2 seconds. It is used to
navigate the current level of the menu and to select a channel. Upon release, the next menu
item will be selected and indicated using the front panel LED display.
2. Utilize press – This is a press of the button that is held for more than 2 seconds, but less than 4
seconds. It is used to enter the sub-menu or select a command to use. Upon expiration of the
two second interval, the LED may change according to the current state. When entering a sub-
menu, the LED will change to amber. When selecting a command to use, the LED display may
vary depending upon the command type (see Commands Illustrated section).
3. Activation press – This is a press of the button that is held for more than 4 seconds. It is used to
activate a command on the chosen channel. Upon expiration of the 4 second interval, the LED
will change per the command selected (see Commands Illustrated section).
Note: The channel 5 LED is visible for navigational purposes. However, there is no functionality for this
menu item. Channel 3 and 4 LEDs are not used at the top level, but are used for submenu items.
Note: Log entries are created when enabling or disabling a channel and tests for either band, except on
channels 5 and 6
Note: When inside a submenu, selection presses will cycle through the submenu items only once. After
the last submenu item is selected, the next selection press will navigate up in the menu – back to the top
level menu item related to submenu just visited.
Note: During the selection of a channel for activation (after a command has been selected), selection
presses will cycle through the channels. An option to select all channels is available for some commands.
The only method to exit this mode is to wait for the pushbutton inactivity timeout to place the menu back
to the idle state. This timeout is 30 seconds.
Note: Submenu items are displayed starting with the LED position inherited from the top level menu
item. As an example, when entering the ranging and test submenu the first submenu item is displayed
on the channel 2 LED – the same channel LED as the top level menu item.
