Menu Map, Figure 3-10 on page 3-11). This menu enables the user to

perform a variety of functions that might occasionally be required.

Those covered in this chapter include:

•run diagnostics

•set up signal and data processing parameters

•define error limits

•test the CTF878 screen and keys

•diagnose setup problems

Entering the Service

Menu To enter the Service Menu, press the [MENU] key at the lower right of

the CTF878 keypad. The Menu Bar replaces the Status Bar at the top

of the screen. Press the [X] arrow key to scroll from the Site Menu to
