Programming Analog Alarms
There are three function keys used for moving through the pages of the
directory. The UP (F2) function key will display the next page of the
directory. The DOWN (F3) function key will display the previous page of the
directory.
The FIND (F4) function key is used to locate a specific alarm in the
directory. Pressing the F4 function key brings the following prompt to the
screen: FIND ALARM: 001
The functions appearing at the bottom of the screen change so that ABORT
is displayed for the F1 function key. This function key may be used to halt
the FIND operation and return to the previous display.
To continue with the operation, type the desired alarm number and press
the Return key. When the number is found, the cursor is positioned on that
entry in the directory.
The MODIFY (F5) function key is used to create or edit analog alarms. To
begin the operation, move the cursor to the alarm number in the directory
which will be created or modified. Once the cursor is positioned, press the
MODIFY function key. This displays the Analog Alarm Programming Table.
Table 5-1 shows an example.
