2.7 Basic Settings
A series of settings permit the unit to be programmed according to the user’s wishes. If too
much information bogs you down and causes confusion, it is always possible to reset the unit
at Basic Settings/Init EEPROM, which are the manufacturer’s tested basic settings. You are
basically cleaning the slate.
But please note! All WPs and routes will be deleted as well. At minimum, possible settings
and default values will be shown at the setting points. Should these values be changed, you
move to the change mode by pressing Enter. The value to be changed will blink and can be
modified with the help of the ▼ and ▲ keys. Pressing the Enter key confirms the new value.
Pressing the ESC key recalls the previous setting.
