NEX 608 User Manual
Default Configuration
Most of the configuration settings are either predefined according to the
Load Optimal Defaults settings which are stored in the BIOS or are auto-
matically detected and configured without requiring any actions. There are
a few settings that you may need to change depending on your system
configuration.
Entering Setup

beeps will be transmitted.
