6. FUNCTION SETUP MENU
In the Function setup menu, your Expert Modular can be adjusted further to fit your needs. This
menu can only be entered after you have finished the initial Setup wizard. The following sequence
gives access to the Function menu:
When the Function setup menu is entered, you can use the left and right arrow keys to browse
through the different Functions. By pressing the MENU key, the selected Function value can be
viewed. The left and right arrow keys can now be used to change this value. Pressing the MENU key
again, will then step back to the Function menu. From any menu position, the normal operating
mode can be accessed again by pressing the MENU key for 3 seconds. This will also save any
Function value changes to internal memory. When no keys are pressed for 120 seconds while
operating in the Function setup menu, the Expert Modular will automatically return to the normal
operating mode again without saving any Function value changes. All available Functions are
described in the next chapters.
When the message 'Locked' appears on the display while trying to edit one of the
Functions, the Expert Modular should be unlocked first. See chapter 8 for more
information.
