of this chapter. Each “main menu” contains submenus and options. Please see below a summary of the main
menus and their function:
3.1.1 Current Values Menu
The current values menu allows you to view the values of the unit you are currently connected to. In this menu
you can find the options to adjust the Ventilation rate, check your sensor values, check your firmware version,
and check for possible errors.
3.1.2 Configuration Menu
This will allow you to configure the MultiPlexBox. In this menu you will find the options for naming the unit,
setting its location, its unit address, what controller it uses and its desired function switching contact.

configuration on your laptop hard drive without having to configure it multiple times.
It is recommended saving via the function “Save to file” before any firmware updates.
