Operation - The Display Inter face

4 The Display Interface

As described in Section 1.1, UnitiServe-SSD can be controlled via a number of different
interfaces. This section covers the Display Interface.

The Display Interface is a graphical interface based on navigation around pages and
selection of icons. The Display Interface is fundamentally the same when viewed and
operated via an external display and keyboard/mouse, a touch screen, or a web
browser.

The following paragraphs and illustrations describe how the Display Interface is used to
access some of the most frequently used UnitiServe-SSD functions. Other functions can
be accessed by following the same principles of interface navigation and selection. A
navigation diagram showing the top levels of the interface can be found in Section 8. The
optional Naim Server Remote Handset is illustrated and its functions described in Section
4.9.
