To change data on the displayed Configuration Page, press the small right knob (CRSR) to turn on the
cursor. Turn the large right knob to change between data fields. Turn the large or small right knob to
change a field that the cursor is on. Once you have made the desired selection, press the ENT key to accept
the entry.
