Input Prompts
When you are in the Setup menus, the Series 988 displays the menu selec-
tion ( [InPt], [OtPt], [GLbL] or [COM] ) in the upper display, and [`SEt] in
the lower display.
The Up-arrow > or Down-arrow key < selects another menu. Press the
Mode key µ to display the prompt in the lower display and its value in the
upper display. Use the Up-arrow > or Down-arrow < key to change the
value in the upper display. The new value will not take effect until after a
five-second delay or until you press the Mode key µ.
Input 1
Select sensor type for input 1. This selection must match the sensor type
connected to terminals 8, 9 and 10. See Appendix for more information
about sensors.
• Changing the value of [`In1] changes all other prompts to the factory
default values, except the Communications and Lockout menus, the
[`C_F] prompt in the Global Menu and the [`dFL] prompt in the
Calibration Menu. If you change the value, the default warning [dFLt]
will flash in the upper display.
• Changes do not take effect automatically after five seconds; you must
press the Mode key µ to enter the sensor type change and advance to
the next prompt.
[`In1] This prompt always appears.
