Help
The fastest way to learn what each Windows® function does is through the Help
menus. At any time, help is available by double-clicking the Help icon (previous
section), pulling down the Help menu or by pressing F1. This will bring up the
Help menu (like the example shown below) to allow you to step through the
screen examples. Click on the items on each screen to display a description.
_________ As with all Windows® Help menus, clicking on the underlined words will give
more detailed help.

Specific examples are given below.
Each function on the front panel of your System 4
xi
is emulated in the software
panel in the window. Also, the software was written to operate with different
models of switchers. Therefore, any function that is not available on your model
will be inactive in the window. A function is inactive when it appears dull, or gray,
and does not respond to the mouse cursor.
