Description of the menu
Main menu
The main menu, visible in the previous image “Display Confi guration”, is used to select the main three confi guration categories,
that is:
• Screen Settings: Settings relating to the screen;
• Network Confi guration: Settings relating to the RS485 network;
• General Options: Various settings.
“Screen Settings” menu
See Fig. 6 in the “Screens” section at the end of the document.
The following options are available:
• Contrast: Used to set the contrast of the display (from 0 to 100, default: 50);
• Normal Brightness After: Used to set the time after the touchscreen or the buttons are last pressed that the display switches
from “high brightness” to “normal brightness”. The possible values range from 30 s to 15 min, default: 1 min;
• Screen Saver Timeout: Used to set the time after the touchscreen or the buttons are last pressed that the display switches off,
after having switched to “normal brightness”. The possible values range from 30 s to 4 hours (4 hrs), default: 15 min;
• Calibrate Touch Screen: The touchscreen can be calibrated if it is evidently misaligned. To align the touchscreen, press the exact
centre of the crosses displayed in sequence. The message “Done: touch the screen to ESC” indicates that the operation has
been completed correctly. If, on the other hand, the message “Bad: touch to ESC and repeat” is displayed, the operation will
need to be repeated.
“Network Confi guration” menu
See Fig. 7 in the “Screens” section at the end of the document.
The following options are possible:
• Terminal Address: Used to set the address of the terminal (from 1 to 32, default: 32). If the value “--” is set (two dashes are
displayed) the terminal will communicate with the pCO board using the “Point-Point” protocol (not pLAN) : the “Baud Rate”,
“Network Monitor” and “Setup I/O Board” fi elds will then disappear, as they have no meaning.
• Baud Rate: Used to set the pLAN communication baud rate. The possible values are 62500 (default) or 115200 (used only if all
the devices in the network are confi gured for this speed). Note that not all the pLAN devices support the 115200 setting.
• Network Monitor: This is used to display the status of the network (see next paragraph)
• Setup I/O Board / Setup: These fi elds are used to modify the list of terminals associated with each individual pCO board, as
described in paragraph “pCO: Assigning the list of private...”.
