GP-Pro Ex Reference Manual - M.1.2 Entering Offline Mode

M.1.2 Entering Offline Mode

Offline mode provides various setup options for operating your display unit. First, is immediately after plugging in the display unit's power cord, and second, by using the Forced Reset feature.

At Power ON

Touch the upper right corner or upper left corner (within 40 pixels of the edges) of the panel for at least 3 seconds soon after the startup screen is displayed.

When using GP-4100 series, touch the upper right corner or upper left corner (within 20 pixels of the edges) of the panel for 3 seconds.

When Operating

Either touch the upper right then the bottom left corners, or the upper left and bottom right corners of the panel (within a 40 pixel area, or a 20 pixel area for GP-4100 series) in 0.5 seconds (or 5 seconds for WinGP users).

When the system menu is displayed, touch the [Offline] button.
For details about the buttons in the system menu, see the following.

If the system menu does not appear, in GP-Pro EX, under ([Display Unit] - [Menu and Error Settings]), the setting [Show System Menu] has been set to [Do Not Display]. Change the setting to show the system menu and then transfer the project file again.

M.1.3 Operation in offline mode

In GP-4100 series, if the system menu and error message display at the same time as the alarm banner, the alarm banner will be hidden.
If the system menu or error message is closed and the alarm banner is still active, the alarm banner will now appear. In this case, the alarm banner starts in the middle.
In offline mode, when you transfer from the CF card to backup memory (SRAM), all the previously stored data is overwritten with the transferred data.
In offline mode, when you transfer from the CF card to backup memory (SRAM), the values for [Brightness], [Contrast], and [Volume] do not change. Note, however, that when the display unit enters RUN mode or is turned OFF and then ON again, the transferred information is used in operations.
In offline mode, if you transfer from the CF card to backup memory (SRAM), and if you are using VGA or SVGA display, the VGA/SVGA display may be adjusted.
