CAUTION: Before any customized programming is done, JumpStart should be run first. After Jump-start is run, thoroughly test the 
system. The reason the system should be tested after JumpStart is because JumpStart automatically programs the system, searching for and 
configuring all SLC and SBUS devices it finds. Jump-start allows you to confirm the integrity of the installation prior to performing any 
custom programming. After determining that the hardware is properly installed, custom programming can be performed. Refer to Section 6.
