reset and start scanning with the new program settings.  The CX224 will 
also reset when program settings are changed via the communications 
link using Chromalox’s CX224 Software.  This is the main section of the 
CX224 configuration process and has a full section below covering its 
use.  See section 4B, Entering the Program Settings, for more 
information.
