Programming the
Control Panel
Pressing the DISPLAY button will activate the LCD. When the LCD is
on, the DISPLAY button is used to scroll through the various modes.
These modes are Off, Test, Setup, Run. Once the desired mode is
displayed, select it by pressing the SET button.
Off Mode—Turns the cellular alert off—Cancels Run Mode.
Test Mode—Used to test the alert function. When the Test Mode is
chosen, it will attempt to initiate the chosen alert action(s).
Setup Mode— Used to set the type of sensor, limits for the alert and
the type of alert desired. One sensor at a time can be attached to the
alert. The Setup mode involves moving through a sequence of different
levels to define each option. The arrow buttons are used to scroll
through options, the Set button is used to select options, and the
Display button is to move back to the previous level. The first level of
options is 'Sensor', 'Limit', and 'Alert'. Details about each option are
given below. The default programming sequence is to select the
Sensor type, then the threshold Limit, and finally the Alert type.
However, it is possible to skip straight to the Limit or Alert options from
the initial Setup Mode screen. Use the arrow button to scroll to the
desired option and select it by pressing the SET button.
Sensor— In sensor setup mode, the choices are: Temperature
in Fahrenheit, Temperature in Celsius, Humidity, Wetness, and
Voltage. Use the up and down arrows to scroll through the
choices. Once the desired sensor is displayed, select it by
pressing the SET button. The display will switch to Limit mode.
Press SET again to enter Limit setup mode.
Limit— The Alert will monitor if the sensor value crosses above
or below an adjustable threshold. Select Above or Below using
the up and down arrow buttons. Press SET to select your
choice. The display will then allow you to set the threshold
value. Use the arrow buttons to change the value. Save the
value by pressing the SET button. For a fast scroll, hold the
SET button down. For the power unit, set the sensor type to
Voltage and the Limit to 1.0 Below.
