After completing the installation and setting up the internet connection (if required), go through the menu from top to bottom to
configure the CCGX:
Item Default Description
General

to the configuration. Installer has additional privileges and once
changed from default requires a password. Password is available
from your dealer.

system in case there is a problem.
Reboot? Reboots the GX device
Audible alarm Yes When there is an alarm on the CCGX or a connected product, the
CCGX will beep - unless this setting is set to 'Off'.
Demo mode Disabled Demonstrates product and installation features to a client or at an
exhibition. This simulation mode will allow better understanding
without (yet) changing any settings. Note that this will add
simulated devices to a VRM installation. Demos for ESS, Boat
and Motorhome are available.

previous system and/or troubleshoot in case of issues.
