paX2C
The PAX2C offers three display loops to allow users quick access to needed
information.
Main Display Loop
In the Main display loop, the D key is pressed to sequence through the
selected Line 2 values. The Line 2 units mnemonics are used to indicate which
Line 2 value is currently shown. When in the Main display loop, the Function
keys and perform the user functions programmed in the User Input
parameter section.
Parameter and Hidden Parameter Display Loops
Display loops provide quick access to selected parameters that can be viewed
and modified on Line 2 without having to enter Full Programming mode. These
values may include: input, max/min, List A/B selection, output power, PID
parameters/control, alarm parameters, setpoint values/selection, and display
intensity and contrast settings. To utilize the Parameter or Hidden Parameter
display loops, a security code (1-250) must be programmed. (See Programming
Security Code in the Display Parameters programming section for details.)
The Parameter display loop is accessed by pressing the P key. The selected
Parameter display loop values can be viewed and/or changed per the Line 2
Value Access setting programmed for each available value. The Hidden
Parameter display loop follows the Parameter display loop, and can only be
accessed when the correct security code is entered at the Code prompt.
Combining the two parameter loops provides an area for parameters that require
general access and/or protected or secure access depending on the application
needs.
While in the Parameter and Hidden Parameter loops, pressing the D key will
return the meter to the Main display loop. To directly access the Code prompt,
press and hold the P key. This can be done from the Main display loop or at any
point during the Parameter display loop. Also, to directly access Full
Programming mode while in the Hidden Parameter loop, press and hold the P
key to bypass any remaining Hidden Parameter loop values.

Universal Annunciator Zones
The PAX2C has four programmable universal annunciator zones. Each zone
has a user-defined two digit annunciator mnemonic to suit a variety of
applications. Universal annunciator zones are tri-colored and may be configured
to change color based on specified alarm/logic configurations.
Manual Mnemonic
‘MAN’ - Flashes when the unit is in manual mode
The Mnemonic zone is tri-colored and may be configured to change color
based on specified alarm/logic configurations.
It is recommended that program settings be recorded as programming is
performed. A blank Parameter Value Chart is provided at the end of this bulletin.
BASIC/ADVANCED MODE
The PAX2C incorporates two different configuration modes that are user
selectable via the Display Configuration Menu:
Basic Mode (
bSIC
)
When the PAX2C is configured in this mode, a maximum of four alarms are
supported and no mapped backlignt color changes are available. Default
backlight colors are still user selectable.
Advanced Mode (
AdUC
)
A maximum of sixteen alarms are supported and all backlight color
configuration menu parameters are enabled. Select this mode when you require
more than four alarms or where display color changes are desired.
PROGRAMMING MODE ENTRY
The Programming Mode is entered by pressing the P key. Full Programming
Mode will be accessible unless the controller is programmed to use the
Parameter loop or Hidden Parameter loop on the Line 2 display. In this case,
programming access will be limited by a security code and/or a hardware
program lock. (Refer to the previous section for details on Line 2 display loops
and limited programming access.) Full Programming Mode permits all
parameters to be viewed and modified. In this mode, the front panel keys change
to Programming Mode Operations and certain user input functions are disabled.
MODULE ENTRY
The Programming Menu is organized into seven modules. These modules
group together parameters that are related in function. The  and  keys are
used to select the desired module. The displayed module is entered by pressing
the P key.
MODULE MENU
Upon entering a module, a parameter selection sub-menu is provided to
choose the specific parameter type for programming. For example, this includes
analog and user input under the Input Parameter menu. Use the  and  keys
to select the desired parameter type, and press the P key to enter the parameter
menu.
PARAMETER MENU
Upon entering the Parameter Menu, the P key is pressed to advance to a
specific parameter to be changed. After completing the parameter menu, or upon
pressing the D key, the display returns to the initial entry point for the parameter
menu. For each additional press of the D key, the display returns to the previous
level within the module until exiting the module entirely.
