The information is split up based on the following
criteria:

connection of the device and software installa-
tion.

It provides you with information on operation
where you need it. It is called up via

and configuration. They are contained in a PDF
file on the accompanying CD (
CD-ROM/Manu-
als

screen or print it out here.
By supplying only the most essential information as
a printout, we are reducing the unnecessary use of
paper and thus making our contribution towards
environmental protection.
