THE COMMUNICATIONS LED
The communications LED will light solid to show
data is being received. If the LED flashes at regular
one (1) second intervals, it indicates the unit was
unable to find the generator. Irregular flashing is an
indication of poor reception.

GENERATOR COMMUNICATIONS
The transceiver requests data from the generator
every two (2) seconds and this is stored inside the
transceiver locally. The data is relayed to the base
station over the radio link every time it is requested
by the display about every two (2) seconds. When
on battery power, the data is only requested every
minute to conserve batteries. If the generator is not
talking to it’s transceiver, but the radios are talking
to each other, this will be indicated by an appropri-
ate alarm which will be displayed after a seven (7)
second period (Figure 4). Check the wiring and con-
nection to the generator.

BACKLIGHT
The display is backlit providing that it is powered
from the wall transformer. If batteries are being
used the backlight is disabled to conserve power.
The backlight is lit whenever a key is pressed. It will
remain lit for 20 seconds if there are no further key-
presses. If an alarm occurs, the backlight will flash at
a one (1) second rate (not if battery powered).

BUTTONS
Operation of the display is controlled by three (3)
buttons labeled +, —, and Enter. These buttons are
used to navigate the display to the required page, or
to enter data. The +/— buttons are also referred to
as the arrow keys. Holding down a button for more
than half a second will cause it to autorepeat until it
is released.

BATTERY AND SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATORS
In the top left corner of the display, there are two
icons (or pictures) that give a quick indication of
the state of the internal battery and the radio signal
strength (Figure 5). The battery is represented by the
left hand, single tall rectangle which is drawn as being
somewhere between full and empty. Full represents
greater than 75% capacity, mostly full represents 50-
75% capacity, half full represent 25-50% and mostly
empty represents 0-25% capacity. The signal strength
icon is shown to the right of the battery icon as three
vertical bars representing greater than 25%, greater
than 50%, and greater than 75%. Three bars indicate
excellent signal strength, two bars represent good
signal strength (about 45%), one bar represents weak
signal strength. Two bars is the normal indication.
