Nokia 51XX User Manual
3
Menu Modes
There are three Menu Display modes:
-
the execute mode
-
the data display mode
-
the help mode
Different modes are marked in this manual as follows:
************** ++++++++++++++ ##############
* * + + # #
* Execute * +Data display+ # Help #
* Mode * + Mode + # Mode #
* * + + # #
************** ++++++++++++++ ##############
The execute mode is entered from the menu by selecting a menu directly with his number. If the test
index entered pertains to a test that resets a timer (test 80) for example, then the timer is reset as soon
as the OK button has been pressed in the menu, and the data display mode takes over. In other words,
the execute mode is of the one-shot type. To run another test in the execute mode, the Field Test
Display menu must be reactivated.
So, be very careful when jumping to a netmonitor page directly from the menu selection. You may
activate the execute mode incidentally, causing your phone to behave not as expected.
The data display mode is active by default when the Netmonitor is active. During data display mode, the
field test data is visible on the main display.
During help mode, one screen of instructions is shown for each test to make it easier to identify the test
in question. A long press of the asterisk (*) is used to toggle between these two modes.
The arrow keys (^,v) offer an easy way to switch to another test without using the menu. However,
nothing will be executed or set on although such tests would be passed. This is to prevent the user from
accidentally clearing any valuable data. The help mode is also a non-execute mode. Display numbers
have been selected in such way that no 5-terminated test number is an execute display.

Reserving SIM phonebook locations
When using a phone with enabled field test displays, it is highly recommended to put some default data
into the SIM phonebook locations that are used by some field test displays. Especially Test 17 (BTS
TEST) may give some confusing results if SIM phonebook location 33 is not correctly configured.
Additionally, this prevents accidental storing of phone numbers and names into such locations.
Displays 52 and 53 may also write some data to the SIM phonebook locations 35 and 36.

Reserving SIM SCM locations is not necessary if the user is sure that he will never select these displays
using menu shortcut (which executes the display in question).
