Screen error of Intelligent function module utility
Insufficient system resource may cause the screen to be displayed
inappropriately while using the Intelligent function module utility.

To start the Intelligent function module utility

When two or more Intelligent function module utility screens cannot be displayed
side by side, select a screen to be displayed on the top of others using the task
