navigate through the Setup utility. These commands are displayed at all times.
Each Setup menu page contains a number of features. Each feature is associated with a
value field, except those used for informative purposes. Each value field contains
configurable parameters. Depending on the security option chosen and in effect by the
password, a menu feature's value may or may not be changed. If a value cannot be
