KEY DESCRIPTIONS
10.6.1 The Header
The first two lines at the top of the E2 screen are
referred to as the screen header. This area of the screen
contains the time and date, controller name, subnet and
node number, and alarm and failure notifications. In addi-
tion, it contains highlighted indicators and icons to show
when
a user is operating in a particular mode, such as full
options, edit, macro record, or insert mode.
If the E2’s Global Data featur
e is being used to supply
outside air temperature and outside relative humidity val-
ues, these values will also be
displayed in the header.
10.6.1.1 Header Icons
At the very top of every screen in the E2, there are
icons that indicate various stages of activity, number of
users logged into the controller, battery alerts, connectivity
status, and more.
