7.3  MDL_B Configurator Functions 
The MDL_B Configurator program provides the user access to many different configuration, 
control and monitoring options. When the MDL_B Configurator program is launched, the screen 
shown in Figure 4 is displayed. The user should first select the serial port their computer is 
connected to via the Serial Port Selector and Status region. If the selected serial port is valid, the 
gray-colored status box will show ‘Ready’. The Device Selector region allows the end user to 
choose to interface to a MDT-B or MDR-B unit. To configure a MDT-B, select the ‘MDT-B’ box in 
the Device Selector region. Once the ‘MDT-B’ box is selected, the screen shown in Figure 5 is 
displayed. The MDT-B Configurator program contains function buttons and all the configurable 
settings available on a MDT-B. The following sections explain, in detail, the various options.
