3.3.2 CATEGORIES
This function allows defining the functioning attributes and the working features to be associated to the
instruments themselves. The user is required to preventively decide the list of these features.
Lately, when working with the Device configuration, each device can be easily configured with these
appropriate attributes.

me categories can be defined also with “Default”. In this case the category is initially proposed as default
during the instrument configuration.
To save time and make easier the configuration procedure the parameters of the category system can be
saved and lately reloaded for any other use with the same or another server.
