Introduction
Repeat Delay – You can select a short, medium, or long time interval before starting the
continuous display of characters on autorepeat keys.
Serial Number Entry – In Offline mode, you can verify or enter the display station
serial number. This information, along with the Product ID, is stored in the display station’s
nonvolatile memory and is available to be read by the control unit for systems statistics
gathering by NetView. The control unit to which the display station is attached must
support this function.
Extended Vital Product Data – From the Offline Test menu, you can review a
15-character Label field and a 25-character Data field of Extended Vital Product Data.
Extended Vital Product Data is read by control units that support NetView, and is part of
a network management program.
Variable Lines per Page – You can select from 1 through 127 lines per page.
Light Pen – Optional feature that lets you select data from a display panel by pointing to
it with a pen-like device. This selection method is a quick alternative to keying.
