Console Adjustment
The LCD’s contrast can be adjusted either by using the soft keys in
this form, or by using the UP/DOWN arrow keys on the keypad in
either operating mode. The contrast may need to be adjusted due to
variations in ambient lighting, and operator preference. This form is
also used to set the display saver’s idle time-out. The display saver
setting is the amount of time the system is idle before the LCD
switches to screen saver mode. The idle time may be set from 30 to
120 minutes. The display saver can be disabled during the current
power cycle.
Language
The VUE supports multiple languages. To change the language
selection:
8 Press the LANGUAGE soft key until the desired language selection
appears on the soft key, and the form.
8 Press ENTER to confirm the selection.
Import/Export
Job, and Installation Setup parameters can be imported, or exported
over the “Regular Type B” USB port.
8 Press the IMPORT/EXPORT soft key in the Setup screen.
8 Press IMPORT to download operating parameters from a PC.
8 Press EXPORT to upload the current operating parameters to a PC.
8 To exit, press the C key.
Set/Zero Soft Key
The SET/ZERO soft key is a key that determines the effect of pressing
an Axis key. This key is a toggle key, switching the functionality
between Set, and Zero. The current state is indicated in the Status Bar.
When the state is Set, and the VUE is in Actual Value mode (ABS),
selecting an Axis key opens the Datum form for the selected axis. If
the VUE is in Distance-To-Go mode, a Preset form opens.
When the state is Zero, and the VUE is in Actual Value mode, selecting
an Axis key sets the current datum for that axis to zero at the current
position. If it is in Distance-To-Go mode, the current Distance-To-Go
value is set to zero.
If the VUE is in Actual Value mode, and the state of Set/
Zero is zero, pressing any Axis key resets the current
datum to zero at the current location for that axis.
