Managing Protocols
All Preset and User-Defined Protocols are stored in the Protocol List
for ongoing use. Over time, you may want to manage previously
created Protocols to keep your Protocol List easy to navigate.
In addition, the BTX Gemini X2 allows you to export Protocol
information to an externally connected generator or to a computer
that will be used to control operation. This section of the Guide
describes the file management facilities available on the BTX
Gemini X2.
