and documents the configuration in a comprehensive report.
LoopMaster contains time-saving features like the Strategy Assistant to help you get started, interactive
training screens to explain parameters and guide you through configuration dialogs (see dialog in Appen-
dix A, Glossary of Terms), and an integrated Documenter to automatically generate a complete configura-
tion report. On-the-spot assistance is available; click the Help button to view the help screen related to
