Display Preset

Pressing the {DISPLY PRESET} softkey displays the preset values

assigned to the timer. The value just above the timer element shows the

default preset value assigned to the timer when PAL was originally written.

The actual preset value (since the preset can be modified with a --(PUT)--

command) is shown just below the timer element. Typically both these

preset values are the same.

The softkey of the current mode being displayed for timers is shown in

reverse video.

This feature of the search monitor utility is designed to allow you to
quickly switch between most 9/Series screens and the search monitor

utility. Using this feature of search monitor, you can jump directly from

your current screen to the search monitor and return quickly. This is

performed with a hotkey.

Use the search monitor hotkey as follows:

1.

Select the screen to view using the normal softkey path.

2.

You can now jump between the selected screen and the search

monitor utility using the hotkey sequence which consists of

[SHIFT] + {® } keys simultaneously (hold the shift and press the

“more” softkey). Each time you press the hotkey, the search monitor

utility will toggle between the search monitor screen and the selected

screen.

Refer to the accessing the search monitor utility on page 15A-4 for details

on how the search monitor information is interpreted and other search

monitor restrictions.

Important: You can not use the [DISP SELECT] key to select displays
when the search monitor utility is active. Additionally you can not use the

search monitor hotkey if you have the [DISP SELECT] keys active. If you

need to use the display select functions you must select the display prior to

entering any of the search monitor screens.
