Navigating the Configuration Software Screens
The configuration software comprises sequential screens that can be accessed through the
Next

Prev
buttons. Some screens also have secondary screens that are accessed through
buttons. These are identified by the name of the screen they invoke, for example, the
Date/Time Settings screen is a secondary screen of the Unit Identification screen and can be
accessed from the
Date/Time
button on this screen. The following is a description of the
configuration software navigation buttons.
