Expert
Mode
The Expert Mode menu allows you to edit the configuration fields of Red Lion SN
/
RAM 6000 and RAM 9000 RTU

Expert Mode is not recommended unless directed by Red Lion Technical Support.
Warning:
Should you choose to edit the configuration files directly, we encourage you to contact Red Lion
