The ETU Utilities Menu

The ETU utilities menu provides access to the ETU commands that aren't used for transferring files. There are three groups of commands on the Utilities menu. They are the PC functions commands, the translation commands, and the translation table commands. These commands are described later in this chapter.

To display the ETU Utilities menu, select option 20 from the ETU Main menu.
