Reading the Display
The keypad displays information as both text and animated graphics. There are two
types of content screens, selected by pressing the corresponding Navigation button:
Status and Menu.
The Status Screen (Figure 5-2) is the default screen that displays after exciter
startup, following an initialization screen. It uses animated meters with associated
text to present exciter performance data. An alternate Status Screen can also be
accessed (see Status Screen).

The Exciter Health and State Icons continually show on the right hand side of all
display screens. They indicate if the exciter is functioning correctly and show its
running state. These icons are displayed in five functional groups, as shown below.
