screen. The PMC CPU monitor blanks within two minutes and can also be redisplayed by pressing any key.
2-8. INITIAL ADJUSTMENT, CHECKS, AND SELF-TEST.  There are no built-in tests that can be performed by the
operator. All diagnostics are performed automatically by the system software.
2-9. GENERAL OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES. When you have logged in and are situated at your workstation, there
are no more operational procedures to be done. Your primary function now is to respond to alarms. The following
information is provided to help you understand the system and use the correct procedures in responding to alarms.
Procedures for processing alarms begin at paragraph 2-10, "Processing Alarms".
a. Basic Alarm Display. The basic alarm display appears when you log in to the operator mode. It contains up to
four main areas called frames, as illustrated in the lower left corner of Figure 2-17. The format and location of these are
defined within the operator profile. Your display may therefore be different from that presented to other operators in your
control center.
(1) Status Frame (Item 1, Figure 2-17). The status frame shows the identity which you used to log in, the
current time and date, and the operational mode of the terminal. The frame may also show the system active indicator
(heart) which normally flashes twice or more a second. If the operator utility program stops running for any reason, the
indicator stops flashing. Contact the system administrator.
(2) Display Frame (Item 2, Figure 2-17).  The display frame presents information about the condition of
equipment; for example, alarms lists and graphic diagrams. It also displays menus and numbered lists of selected files
and displays. These displays fall into two general categories: primary displays and auxiliary displays.
(a) Primary Display. A primary display is retained by the system and can be recalled using the paging
keys. When the display is created, it remains in the frame until another display is called, either by a display command
being entered or by paging keys. There are nine types of primary displays: Alarm queue, summary, off-normal, graphic,
events and trends, reports, procedures, and records.
(b) Auxiliary Display. An auxiliary display appears for a temporary period and cannot be recalled using the
display paging keys. Auxiliary displays include notes and mail together with displays which appear when you use a
[MENU] key or attributes command. When an auxiliary display is requested, it appears in the display frame, overlaying
any primary display.  The primary display remains hidden until you are finished making the selections or changes
required, and end the command.
(3) Alarm Frame (Item 3, Figure 2-17). The alarm frame displays the highest priority alarm within each of the
assigned alarm queues.
(4) Command Frame (Item 4, Figure 2-17). The command frame is divided into two, lines. The first line
presents you with prompts and displays your response, and the second line displays the available soft-key options. The
layout of the soft-keys options imitates the layout of the keys on the top row of the keyboard labelled F1-F10 (see Figure
2-18). The F1 key (alarm) is used to select the first option, F2 (CNTRL), the second option, and so on through F10 which
selects the last option.
(a) The initial set of-soft-keys offered are called the Main Menu. Up-to-ten options-can appear on the main
menu, each of which represents a system command. You may also have up to 10 additional main menu soft-keys,
accessed by pressing the [NEXT] key.
