Detailing The Impact Attendant View

The main Impact Attendant window provides an overview of the activity on the digital communications system.

Locating The Drop-Down Menus

The drop-down menus drop down as you click on them to provide commands that you can select. Some of the
drop-down menu actions are unique while others duplicate actions such as clicking a tool from the tool bar or
clicking directly on a station selection.

Locating The Tool Bar

As with the drop-down menus, the tool bar buttons provide commands that activate when you click on
them—some unique and some duplicating actions that you can do with different techniques. The tools identify
their actions as you move the cursor across them.
