Exploring Cable Management

Exploring the Cable Management Environment

The Cable Management interface is comprised of several helpful sections. In keeping everything uniform, the actual look of the software will remain the same throughout the different sections of the application. By reviewing the layout of the interface, one can see a navigator, a spreadsheet view area, a detail section, a locator area, and helpful links all from the uniform exploration view. This environment was built to satisfy all your documentation needs while remaining easy to use and navigate.

The Cable Management Main Page

When you login to Cable Management, the first screen will be the Main Page. The Main Page is the entry page to access all of Cable Management's features. Every additional page you view in Cable Management has a link back to the Main Page to make it easy to navigate between the application itself and Cable Management's setup tools and reports. The Main Page link is located near the top right-hand corner of all Cable Management screens.

The Main Page links are located in a column of five menus along the right side of Figure 1-1.
