“Forms” Design. The configuration screens, in particular, operate similarly to a number of PC applications that use forms for data entry. When you first enter these screens, you see the current configuration for the item you have selected. To change the configuration, the basic operation is to:

1.Press [E] to select the Edit action.

2.Navigate through the screen making all the necessary configuration changes. (See Table 3-1 on page 3-10.)

3.Press [Enter] to return to the Actions line. From there you can save the configuration changes or cancel the changes. Cancel returns the configu- ration to the values you saw when you first entered the screen.
