GeoRadio Settings (Remote)

These settings are accessed by selecting GeoRadio as your communication type and pressing the Configure button. This

mode works exactly the same as the Direct Robotic mode, except a GeoRadio must be used in lieu of the cable. The

instrument must also be robotic and be operating in the Remote mode with the faceplate removed. The only additional

settings are for the GeoRadio itself.
