4.1. Introduction
This chapter describes all of the parameters of the UNIDEX 511 system. Parameters are
assembled into 11 groups based on their appearance on “pages” in the Setup menu (F2).
Each page of the menu represents a group of related parameters. The sections in this
chapter are arranged according to these groups under a subtitle that has the name of the
page to which the parameters belong. Within these sections, parameters are presented in
the order in which they appear in the software. Additional sections are included to explain
topics that are closely related to the parameters. Table 4-1 shows a listing of the
parameters and their default values grouped by page.
For easy reference the parameter number is displayed in the margin beside the parameter
explanation. An example is illustrated in the margin to the right.
