played at the top of the page (yellow highlight added for emphasis). When multiple EZ-ZONE
devices are on the network it is important that the part number be noted prior to conguring
so as to avoid making unwanted conguration changes to another control. Looking closely
at the left hand column (Parameter Menus) notice that it displays all of the available menus
and associated parameters within the control. The menu structure as laid out within this
software follows:
- Setup - Operations - Factory - Profile
Navigating from one menu to the next is easy and clearly visible. Simply slide the scroll bar
up or down to display the menu and parameter of choice. If there is a need to bring greater
focus and clarity to the parameters of interest simply click on the negative symbol next to
any of the Menu items. As an example if it is desired to work within the Operations page
click the negative sign next to Setup where the Setup Page will then collapse. Now click the
plus sign next to Operations to nd the menu items of choice without viewing unwanted
menus and parameters. Once the focus is brought to an individual parameter (single click of
mouse) as is the case for Analog Input 1 in the left column; all that can be setup related to
that parameter will appear in the center column. The grayed out elds in the center column
simply mean that this does not apply for the type of sensor selected. As an example, notice
that when a thermocouple is selected, RTD Leads does not apply and is therefore grayed out.
To speed up the process of conguration notice that
at the bottom of the center column there is an
option to copy settings. If Analog Input 1 and 2 are
the same type of sensor click on "Copy Settings"
where a copy dialog box will appear allowing for
quick duplication of all settings. Notice too, that by
clicking on any of those items in the center column
that context sensitive help will appear for that
particular item in the right hand column.
Lastly, when the conguration is complete click the
"Finish" button at the bottom right of the previous
screen shot. The screen to the right follows this ac-
tion.
