Testing Your Changes
You can test the changes you make on the Setup screen before you make them
permanent. This feature allows you to see how your changes affect your system.
For example, you can:
■
Change the color settings, and then test to see if they fit your needs.
■
Change a time interval for getting new data, and then test to determine if
the change has a negative affect on your network traffic.
To test your changes without making them permanent, do one of the following:
■
Click on Apply at the lower left corner of the screen.
