feature, please follow the steps below.
1. Click on the Security tab from the Edge's Instrument Configuration panel (see 1). To enable, click on the Enabled check box.
(Ensure the specific Edge is selected and communicating to the software. See "Communicating and downloading" for more
information.)
2. Next, select either Not Displayed (see 2) or Displayed (see 3). Press Set Configuration to send the changes to the selected
instrument.
3. To set the security settings, save and send to the Edge (for more details see "Saving and sending configurations".

Auto Run setting

With the Edge auto run setting, you can program up to two auto start and auto stop configurations when start date and duration

long study. See steps below to enable.
1. Click on the Auto Run tab from the Edge's Instrument Configuration panel (see 1) and click in the Enable checkbox (see 2).
2. To program Date 1, click in the Enabled checkbox and select a Start Date (by using the calendar icon or type in a date). Select
the Duration, by either typing in the time (designated in hours, minutes, and seconds) or using the up/down arrows (see 3).
(Repeat this step to setup a second Auto run mode. See 4.)
3. To set Auto Run setting, save and send to the Edge (for more details see "Saving and sending configurations".
