settings for parameter assignment of
the device.
You can make the following settings:
• Settings for operation

• Screen saver
• Acoustic signals
The Start Center is divided into a
navigation area and a work area.
If the device is configured in
landscape, the navigation area is on
the left and the work area on the right
in the display.
If the device is configured in portrait,
the navigation area is on the top and
the work area on the bottom in the
display.
When the display space in the
navigation area or work area is not
sufficient to display all buttons or
icons, scroll bars will be displayed.
You can scroll on the navigation area
or work area using a swipe gesture;
see example on the right.
In most entry fields, the entered value is checked, and, if invalid, it is outlined in red and the
value itself is red. The settings are applied and saved when you change to another tab or
window. Invalid input values are not applied.
