• DashBoard™ and the Remote Control Panels provide network control of the 9084 as shown. The value displayed at any time on the card, or via DashBoard™ or a Control Panel is the actual value as set on the card, with the current value displayed being the actual value as effected by the card. Parameter changes made by any of these means are universally accepted by the card (for example, a change made using the card controls will change the setting displayed on DashBoard™ and a Control Panel; a change made using DashBoard™ will similarly change the setting displayed on a Control Panel and the card itself).
