Setup
The R&R Interface Setup screen (FIG. 93) contains all the setup configuration necessary for Matrix to apply the appropriate fluid charge to an R&R Repair Order (RO).
Note: The term “work order” (or WO), which the Matrix PC software and this manual uses, is synonymous with R&R’s “repair order” (or RO). “Work order” is used when in the context of Matrix software, while “repair order” is used to refer to the same entity, but within the R&R DMS (Dealer Management System).
