TDX Service Tool

System window

The System window contains a number of tabs and buttons, information

about connected units and a configuration list area.

Via the tabs you enter the different stages of set-

ting up your input and output modules.

You use the buttons in the upper right-hand corner

in connection with the TDX Service tool whereas

you use the buttons below the configuration list

area in connection with the entire setup itself.

This list displays whether any subunits are con-

nected to the main headend unit and also whether

they are up and running.

This list area will display your present configuration

of your headend system as well as the previous

versions of the configuration.
