7.4.2 USING MENU MODE
SUGGESTION: Before using the menu mode, it
is best to disable the automatic feedback
feature. The values and current settings will be
displayed in the menu mode, but the automatic
feature will display after each setting change
making the menus difficult to read.
1.
In order to enter MENU mode, the system
needs to be connected to a computer
running MTSetup™ or other RS-232 control
software.
2.
Insert the card into an empty slot and push
in all the way for a secure fit.
3.
Reset the system or power the system OFF
and then ON.

In MTSetup™, click the cursor in the
