ICON FUNCTION
Tap the [Get Data] icon to refresh the active screen with
existing configured data from the currently selected transceiver.
Tap the
[Set Data] icon to save any parameters that may have
changed; the system is updated with the data currently displayed
on the active screen.
As described on page 2-8, tapping the [ok] icon from the
Main
Menu exits the CiLink program and returns the user to Windows.
However – for all other functions, tapping the [ok] icon on any
command screen that is nested below the
Main Menu
(and
requires user input) serves to
reject
all changes made to the
programmable parameters within that active screen, and returns
the user to the
Main Menu
screen.

from the currently selected transceiver. Otherwise, tap [ok] to return
to the Main Menu from the General Information screen.

provides the user with non-selectable, status-only information.
