2.Getting started
This section describes the basics of using the controller and the meaning of the various
items of information presented on the screen.
2.1.
The menu system
FORMAT uses a menu system to allow the operator to select what function the controller
should perform. This approach will be familiar to users with experience of using personal
computers.
When the chamber is first switched on, FORMAT goes through its startup sequence
(which lasts approximately 1 minute) and then displays the initial Main Menu screen:
The Main Menu displays a list of options which are available to you, one of which is
highlighted (Steady State in Figure 1). By using the "up" and "down" arrow keys, the
"highlight bar" can be moved through the menu options.

Fig 1 The Main Menu Screen
To select a menu option, move the highlight bar to the option you require, then press the
"Enter" key.
Selecting some of the menu options (for example, Alarm Setpoints and Program) causes
another sub-menu of options to appear. The highlight bar then appears on the sub-menu.
To remove a sub-menu (returning the highlight bar to the parent menu), press the Esc
key.
