6.6 System set-up menu
The ‘System set-up menu’ is a menu with items which are not directly related to the control
functions of the machine itself but define the complete installation and user interface. The available
items are used to set-up some extra features of the controller.
6.6.1 Adjust date & time
Password level 1 is required to be able to adjust current date and current time. When the
item ‘Adjust date & time’ is chosen from the ‘System setup menu’ the screen will show the current
date & time in the display, with the cursor blinking on the first edit-field (the day field in the date).
The current date can only be viewed and edited in a DD-MM-YYYY format. The displayed time is
in HH:MM format.
The adjusted date and time are internally used in the controller to create an alarm history list
with start times and active times (see chapter 6.7) and for the counters per day. At the moment a
new day begins according to the date and time adjusted in this controller, a new counter record for
the new day will be created (see chapter 6.3.2).
To adjust the value of the field where the cursor is, use the numeric buttons and / or the
PLUS and MINUS buttons. Confirm the new value with the ENTER button. The cursor can be
moved to the next or previous edit field with the ARROW DOWN and ARROW UP button.
6.6.2 Change language
Password level 2 is required to change the language of the controller display. When ‘Change
language’ is chosen from the ‘System setup menu’, the first line will tell the user to select a
language from the list. The 2
nd
line shows the name of the current language, like for example
‘English’. Now, a language can be selected with the ARROW UP and ARROW DOWN buttons.
When the right language is selected, this choice can be confirmed with the ENTER button,
Because the DQ 01 controller has a full world-wide character set, it is possible that the
controller is set to a language which can not be read and/or understood. This can also happen if the
language is accidentally changed to another language.
If this happens, it would be difficult to go through the available menus and find the ‘Change
language’ item again. Therefore, a work-around is available. When switching the controller off and
on again, the start-up logo (or an empty screen) will be shown for around 4 seconds. If, during this
time, the SHIFT button and the ENTER button are held simultaneously, the screen to change the
language will be activated as well, so another language can be selected.
6.6.3 Restore factory settings
Restoring factory settings should normally not be necessary because all parameters are
stored in non-volatile memory, which does not need a battery to retain its data. But, in some cases it
can be useful to be able to go completely back to factory settings.
If the item ‘Restore factory settings’ is chosen from the ‘System setup menu’, and the
password level is sufficient, the screen for restoring factory settings will be displayed. If the
password level is too low, the password screen will be activated. A password level 2 is necessary to
get access to the factory settings screen.
If the screen for restoring factory settings is displayed, the factory settings can be restored
by pushing the SHIFT button and NUMERIC 9 button at the same time. When factory settings are
restored, the overview screen will be activated again. Because restoring the factory settings is a time
