Immediately after starting STcontroller the application will locate and display the devices that it can control. The one or more Model 371A units that are recognized will appear in the device list. Use the Identify com- mand to allow easy recognition of a specific Model 371A unit. Double clicking on a device name will cause the associated configuration menu to appear.
