SmartPAC 2 User Manual 1126700

Keyboard, Displays, Etc. 3-11

The switch has a removable key so that access to Run mode can be controlled.

Function Keys

The function keys, shown in Figure 3-17, are used to perform specific tasks on SmartPAC 2

screens. Located on the SmartPAC 2 panel along the right edge of the LCD, these eight keys,

F1 through F8, are assigned different functions on each SmartPAC 2 display. Specific

functions are shown in a rectangular label on the LCD just to the left of the function key

number label. When a function key has no label, no function has been assigned to that key on

that screen. Screen messages may instruct you to press specific function keys to perform

certain tasks. In most of the screens in Run mode, the F8 key has been assigned the function

of returning you to the Main Run Menu.

In Run mode, you can program function keys as “Hot” keys to give you quick access to

frequently-used screens. See Hot Keys, next, for more information.

Hot Keys

Hot keys, shown in Figure 3-18, page 3-12, are function keys you program to take you

directly to Run mode screens you use frequently. When a function key is programmed as a

Hot key, a description of the screen to which the key is linked appears in the label to the left of

the function key number on the Main Run Menu. When you press that function key,

SmartPAC 2 goes to that screen. For detailed instructions on how to use Hot keys, see

page 6-3.

SmartPAC 2 changes from Run to Program mode or from Program to Run when the display shows

the Main menu in the mode you are leaving. If you turn the key and nothing happens, press

RESET repeatedly until you see the new mode appear on the display.
