The AWS product line has been newly redesigned to provide a consistent
interface throughout the product line. We have made the user interface menu
driven, as opposed to 'hard coded'. This has provided several advantages.
First, once you learn the basics, you can operate any of our products with the

of functionality than was previously possible. Thirdly, it allows the user the
opportunity to economically upgrade and or customize the tester at any point
in the future.
