4.2.5 Programming Procedures.
Detailed programming information concerning each
of these items follows the Program Menu Flow
Chart, Figure 4-3. Step-by-step procedures on how
to program parameters for each menu item are also
included. Follow the procedures below to access the
Program Menu. Figure 4-4, traces the order of menu
items in the Program Menu.
A. Manual Programming - While the unit may
be programmed remotely, this exercise deals with
manually programming the unit from the front panel
using the display and the touch screen keypad.
Various buttons and keys will be presented on the
display. You make a choice by pressing the appropriate
key or button. In some instances, direct selection
is not possible but rather a series of choices
are made by using the UP (↑) or DOWN (↓) arrow
button, pressing ENTER or EXIT. Once programming
is complete, the unit automatically LEARNS
the current setup which is stored in nonvolatile
memory and remembered indefinitely.
B. First Time Power-up - When powering up
the unit for the first time or if the data in the nonvolatile
memory should become corrupt, you will be
asked to perform a Smart Initialize, select No.
1. SMART INITIALIZATION - Smart Initialization
verifies that each Profile database block has a
correct checksum and (if incorrect) each parameter
in the corrupt block(s) is verified to be within
allowable boundaries. Only those parameters in
corrupt blocks found to be outside these boundaries
are changed. Bad parameters are always
replaced with pre-defined defaults.

2. FULL INITIALIZATION - If the user answers no
to "Smart init?", a choice is presented to force the
recorder to do a "Full init?". Full initialization will
completely clear all user-defined parameters, setting
them to pre-defined defaults.
C. Performing Initialization - You will then be
requested to perform a full initialization. Select Yes
at this stage to reset all values to the default. There
are many parameters that can be programmed,
including time and date, the display, the virtual chart
and pens, the points, the recording capability, the
alarms, the digital outputs and the communication
port.
D. Invoking the Command Menu Bar -
Press the MENU button to the far right of the button
bar at the bottom of the screen. This will bring up
the Command Button bar shown in Figure 4-3.
Press the PROGram button to invoke the Program
Menu and the Program Menu button bar. A Passcode
can be set to keep the Program Menu from
unauthorized entry. Refer to the Paragraph entiltled
System for instructions on setting up a passcode.

has been programmed, use the pop-up key
panel to enter the correct passcode and press the
ENTER button. The display will show a pop-up dialog
box with a list of menu items and Time & Date
highlighted. This is the first menu item in the Program
Menu but may not be the menu item first highlighted
each time you enter the Program Menu. The
first menu item highlighted when you enter any
menu will be the last menu item used the last time
that menu was used. Use the Up or Down (↑↓) Arrow
