Principle of Menu Tree Structure

A welcome message appears in the display after switching on the „Type
8620 mxCONTROL“. This display content is then shown with the current
software version number

for approx. 4 seconds.

When starting the „Type 8620 mxCONTROL“ for the first time, the next
display text shows "No Config. loaded", i.e., no (configuration/parameter)
files have been downloaded yet. In this case, refer to chapter 11.2 about
downloading configuration and parameter files.

The menu of „Type 8620 mxCONTROL“ contains 8 main menu items; its
submenus are used to display and set variables and parameters.

The first number in the bottom line of display is the number of the active
main menu item (items 1 to 8).

Depending on the hardware version, the „Type 8620 mxCONTROL“ has digital and analog inputs
which can be configured according to the user requirements.

The configuration via the configuration file is needed for enabling and labelling the desired inputs and
outputs and for activation of special input functions. The scaling, filter and alarm settings can be done
with the configuration file, too, but also directly at the „Type 8620 mxCONTROL“ device.

The main menu and submenu items for a “project” (module combination) with freely selectable name
(in this case "BW 06") are listed in the appendix (21.4.3 ff). The following figure shows exemplified part
of the menu tree and illustrates the structure of the menu.
