Configuring parameters

The MMI has been designed with default settings so that no configuration
is necessary. However, it can be configured to suit a specific environment.

Set Time

Before configuring the MMI, login to the system and enter the current
time. Do this by typing in the Set Time (S T) command set. The MMI then
displays the time it has registered. Enter a new time or press "Enter" to
leave it unchanged. The time is entered in the "hh:mm:ss" military time
format.

Set Date

The current date must be set. Do this by typing in the Set Date (S D)
command set. The MMI then displays the date it has registered. Enter a
new date or press "Enter" to leave it unchanged. The date is entered in
the "mm/dd/yy" format.

Alarm parameters

alarm is activated, and its duration. There are three alarm activation levels:

Alarm Level 0 (AL0) consists of activity with an error threshold
below the AL1 setting. This is a satisfactory condition and no alarm
is activated.

Alarm Level 1 (AL1) consists of activity with an error threshold above
the AL1 setting but below AL2 setting. This is a minor unsatisfactory
condition. In this situation, the external alarm hardware is activated
by closing the normally open contact. The RED ALARM LED on the
