The WCM user interface is a simple, menu based interface. Each selectable item may be
selected by typing the first capital of the option, e.g. for “Data port set-up” type <D>

will not be the first letter, e.g. “alarm eXtension” which is selected with <X> or <x>.
On the right side of the display is a list of what is below each item. This could be:
<menu>
This indicates a sub-menu will be entered
<display>
This indicates an information screen will be displayed. This may be
status or statistics.
Additional keys may be used to navigate the menu system:

This will exit the current menu, or log out from the main set up menu.
<SPACE>
This will toggle through a list of selectable options
<ENTER>
This will select an item

Encapsulating an item within < > indicates a key press is required, for example <D>
means type D.
