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.
