Setup and Calibration

5.1

Setup and Calibration Organisation

Setup is organised into Chapters, each comprising a number of Pages.
Setup pages use both panes of the display.

The Dual Maxi Display is designed for remote control; the built in setup
mode only provides settings for functions that are local to the Dual Maxi
Display. These settings are configured by operating the setup function in
remote contol mode using a Tacktick Remote Display. See the Remote
Display user guide for details of remote control mode.

The diagram below shows the layout of the available setup chapters and
pages on the Dual Maxi Display. For a full description of each setup
page refer to section 5.4.

Generic system setup and configuration is carried out directly from the
Remote Display. See the Remote Display user guide for details.
