7	Using the Configuration Tool
	The Configuration Tool is a software application that makes the installation and configuration
	of a unit faster and easier. The Configuration Tool runs on a PC that is connected to the
	Divar XF via an Ethernet network connection.
	Although all settings can also be configured with the on-screen display menu of the Divar XF
	itself, the Configuration Tool offers a very user-friendly alternative. It also allows configuration
	settings to be saved on the PC hard disk. These can be restored later and used to configure
	other units.

	connection. The Configuration Tool application must be installed on the PC.
