SET values and ACTUAL values  

In some cases, you can manually set a value that is displayed alongside the actual value as follows: 

•

 

ACTUAL

: the actual value of the parameter as queried by the module 

•

 

SET

: the intended value of a given parameter as set by the user 

 

 

For details on setting a value, refer 8.3 Setting values. 

 

Managing CohesionUI settings 

On the SETTINGS page you can configure CohesionUI settings and unit preferences. 

Step size refers to the amount by which the attenuation, frequency, or power increases / decreases 

when the + or - button is clicked. 

To view all settings and unit preferences and adjust as required: 

1.

 

Click SETTINGS. 

2.

 

Change settings or unit preferences as required, for example temperature units. 

3.

 

Step size refers to the amount by which a value is increased or decreased when clicking the + or
