Using the Front Panel
The front panel LCD screen displays a series of menus that can be used to
configure and control the system. The name of the current menu is always in the
upper left corner of the screen for easy identification.
• Beneath every menu name are symbols representing key presses that are
possible from the current cursor position in the menu. The available keypad
moves may change during the navigation between menu fields.
• The top row to the right of the menu name displays the name of each field
available within that menu. These are called field labels and its setting is
displayed directly below.
• Beneath each label is the current setting for each field.
• Some fields may be changed by the user and others are for display purposes
only. Fields that can be changed have an arrow indicator just to the left of the
field label. During left/right navigation, the cursor skips over the labels that
cannot be changed.
The LCD is momentarily backlit with circuitry that turns off the backlighting
approximately four minutes after the last button press or warning screen. To view
the screen after backlighting has turned off, press any button once to turn on the
backlighting.
In addition to the menus on the LCD screen, the LED indicators show the IRD’s
current status.
• The Signal LED indicates that the IRD recognizes a valid carrier signal.
• The Authorized LED indicates either:
- (1) the programmer has transmitted the access messages to allow the IRD to
decrypt the signal, or
- (2) the signal is unencrypted or fixed key.
• The Bypass LED indicates that the Aux Video and Audio inputs are routed to
the IRD’s outputs.
• The Alarm LED indicates that the IRD is in an alarm condition.
• The Relay LEDs indicate a particular cue-tone relay is being used or tested.
• The Download LED indicates when the IRD is receiving a code update via
downloaded information.
