Commissioning checklist
The NSE has a number of advanced features which can be configured through the
settings menu.
It is recommend you become familiar with the operation of the unit using the default
settings before making any changes to these menus.
Settings menus will vary depending on the optional sensors and devices attached.
Before changing system settings make sure that all displays are powered on as a lot of
settings are global and are shared across the Ethernet network.
It is recommended to note the original settings before making adjustments or changes.
