"CLV-Setup Help" online help
The "CLV-Setup Help" online help helps you in using the "CLV-Setup" software. The help
runs under an HTML browser (such as Netscape
TM
, Microsoft Internet-Explorer
TM
, or the
I-View Pro
TM
browser supplied with the program). The help can be called up context-specifi-
cally for the parameter being edited and describes the function of the parameter and pos-
sible values for the parameter.

The browser window is opened and displays the help topic.

In order to prevent several browser windows from being opened use the [ALT] + [TAB]
key combination or the Windows status bar to toggle between the CLV-Setup and CLV-
