The Interface Setup Menu presents these names so that they can be
assigned to a hardware input or output port. Each abbreviated name is
then presented in appropriate locations of the USER SETUP MENU to
provide the user with choices of data sources, or identified to the
AP300X where to look for various types of data.
When you assign a hardware port to an abbreviated name, you are
simply telling the AP300X system that when the user chooses an
abbreviated name as a data source it should look to the hardware port
assigned to the abbreviated name for the data.
It is recommended that upon completion of the ISM that the
configuration be recorded in the Interface Setup Table on page 100.
• Enter the Interface Setup part of the ISM by pressing and holding
the NAV/ Setup button for five seconds.
• Scroll through to the Interface setup ? prompt by pressing the
