Let me narrow things down for you guys. First thanks a ton for your help. I appreciate it. But I just want to focus on the programming of Systems - Sites - Departments and how they show up on the "detailed" screen.
I have figured out how to program each system and sites for the system. Pretty easy per the on screen instructions on the scanner. And I believe I am assigning a department correctly to the system and correctly assigning it a number. Example......Make believe system.
System 5 is programmed. And assigned obviously the number 5. I program the site(s) for the system correctly and also assign the sites to the number 5. On the screen the number 5 for system/site 5 flashes like it should. Everything is fine. I then program TG's into a department for that system and assign that department the number 1 because I am going to add more departments at a later date. However when the scanner is scanning that system (Number 5) the department number that is flashing is the number 5.....not the number 1 which I assigned to the department. That is what I want to figure out. I am confused.
I have only had the scanner a few weeks and have only used it about 10 or 12 times totaling about 6 hours. It will take me at least six months to become comfortable with it. I am willing to be patient.
So again thanks for your help. I promise some day, not sure when, I might try PC programming. Maybe.
