5. Return: When enabled, the Monitor Mode will return the

switched A/B circuit(s) to the original A/B position if the

monitored signal also returns to its normal state.

(Default = Off.)
For example, assume the Monitor Mode is configured as

follows:

·

Switch if Level: 1 - High

·

Switch to Position: B

·

Return: On

If the circuit starts in position "A", and the monitored line

goes high, then the circuit will be switched to the "B"

position. However, since the Return feature is enabled, if

the line later returns to the "low" state, the circuit will also

be switched back to the "A" state.
Note: When Item 5 (Return) is enabled, the Delay

Period also determines how long the line must return

to (and remain at) the normal state in order for the

A/B line to be switched back to it's original setting.

6. Circuits to Switch: Determines which of the PLS's three

switched A/B circuits will be controlled by the Monitor

Mode. Note that when this item is used to enable the

Monitor Mode at a given A/B circuit, then the Circuit

Status Screen will display an asterisk in the "MON"

column for that circuit. To choose the circuits that will be

controlled by the Monitor Mode, proceed as follows:
a) From the Monitor Mode Parameters Menu, type 6 and

press [Enter]; the PLS will display a menu that lists

all three available A/B Circuits.

b) Key in the number for the desired circuit, and press

[Enter]; the PLS will display another menu which

allows you to include or exclude the circuit from the

Monitor Mode.

c) To assign the circuit to Monitor Mode, select "On", to

remove the circuit from Monitor Mode, select "Off".

After you have finished selecting parameters for the Monitor

Mode, make certain to return to Item 1 in the Monitor Mode

Parameters Menu and enable the Monitor Mode feature. The

Monitor Mode will not function unless it has been enabled.
