6. The Status Screens
The PLS Status Screens are used to display current conditions of
the three switched A/B circuits and the network interface. There
are two status screens; the Circuit Status Screen (/S), and the
Network Status Screen (/SN).
6.1. The Circuit Status Screen
The Circuit Status Screen lists the current A/B settings for the
PLS-345's three switched circuits, and also summarizes user-
selected parameters, such as Command Echo, Inactivity Timeout,
and Command Confirmation.
As shown in Figure 6.1, the Circuit Status Screen lists the
following items:
1. Site ID Message: The currently defined Site ID message.
Note that the site ID message is defined via the General
Parameters Menu (/G).
2. Ckt #: The circuit numbers for the PLS's three A/B
circuits.
