Moving Through the Menus
The Top Level menu is the starting point for entering all commands. You can access this
menu from any other menu by pressing the Top button.
As with all Excalibur Multirate DAP menus, the Top Level menu consists of two lines.
The top line displays the name of the DAP, while the bottom line displays the possible
options you can select. The top line displays Excalibur DAP for units without dial
backup, DAP +4W 56K DBU for units equipped with the Switched 56 IDBU feature,
DAP + 2 wire 14.4K DBU for units equipped with the Analog IDBU feature, or
DAP + ISDN DBU for units equipped with the ISDN IDBU feature. (You can place
any name in the top line by setting the Alias parameter.) The Top Level menu lets you
select from the following options:
• Local - places the DAP into Local Mode. This is the normal mode of
operation. An L (for local) is displayed in the upper left corner of all screens
when in Local Mode.
• Remot - places the DAP into Remote Mode. When using the interruptive
secondary channel (Basic DDS), the Remote Mode will cause main channel data
to be interrupted. In Remote Mode, you can control any remote Excalibur DAP
in the circuit from the local unit's front panel. (See "Entering Unit Addresses" in
this section for instructions on how to define which remote unit is controlled.)
An R (for remote) appears in the upper left corner of all screens when in Remote
Mode.
