3.3 Local control using the Densité frame control panel
3.3.1 Overview
Push the SELECT button on the 3DX-3901 card edge (Section 1.4) to assign the local control panel to operate the
3DX-3901. Use the control panel buttons to navigate through the menu, as described below.
All of the cards installed in a Densité frame are connected to the frame’s controller card, which handles all
interaction between the cards and the outside world. There are no operating controls located on the cards
themselves. The controller supports remote operation via its Ethernet ports, and local operation using its integrated
control panel.
The local control panel is fastened to the controller card by a
hinged connector, and when installed is located in the front
center of the frame, positioned in front of the power supplies.
The panel consists of a display unit capable of displaying two
lines of text, each 16 characters in length, and five
pushbuttons.
The panel is assigned to operate any card in the frame by
pushing the SELECT button on the front edge of that card
• .Pushing the CONTROLLER button on the control panel
selects the Controller card itself.
• The STATUS LED on the selected card flashes yellow.
The local control panel displays a menu that can be navigated using the four pushbuttons located beneath the
display. The functionality of the pushbuttons is as follows:
[+] [–]
Used for menu navigation and value modification
[SELECT] Gives access to the next menu level. When a parameter value is shown, pushing this button once
enables modification of the value using the [+] and [–] buttons; a second push confirms the new value
[ESC]
Cancels the effect of parameter value changes that have not been confirmed; pushing [ESC] causes
the parameter to revert to its former value.
Pushing [ESC] moves the user back up to the previous menu level. At the main menu, [ESC] does not
exit the menu system. To exit, re-push the [SELECT] button for the card being controlled.
If no controls are operated for 30 seconds, the controller reverts to its normal standby status, and the selected
card’s STATUS LED reverts to its normal operating mode.
3.3.2 Menu for local control
The 3DX-3901 has operating parameters which may be adjusted locally at the controller card interface.
• Press the SELECT button on the 3DX-3901 front card edge to assign the Densité frame’s local control
panel to the 3DX-3901
