Management User Interface

The Management User Interface for the 2345 provides screens for setup, monitoring, and diagnostics.
You can access the screens by connecting to the serial port of the DMM in the chassis or connecting
directly to the serial port on the 2345. These sections discuss the screens for the 2345. For details
about any other module in the domain, see the user manual for that module.

General Screen Format

A typical screen, shown in Figure 4, includes standard descriptions and reference designations. Use
this and other screens to configure the system, set operational parameters, and verify the system
status. All screens use a common method for navigation.

Not all screens and menus provide options that you can change. Some menu items reach screens that
only report status, such as revision numbers, module type, or alarms. On other screens, you can move
through and select options, and enter data.

Use these keys to navigate the screens:

• Space bar When a menu item is highlighted, press <Space> to cycle through all options for that

item.

• Tab Press <Tab> to move the highlight to the next column to the right.
• Enter Press <Enter> to select the highlighted option for a menu item.
• Escape Press <Esc> to return to the previous screen.
