TRI-Select Button Management Software Introduction
The TRI-Select Button Management Software allows you to configure each button for
your custom backup sets as you wish. The Button Management Software identifies
each disk for you by drive letter

and serial number

. When selected the drive letter
and serial number are red and you can begin configuring the buttons. Each button is

identified by the shape that appears on it. The top button is the square
, the middle

button is the circle
and the bottom button is the triangle
.

In the software you will see a box
next to each shape, this is where the path to the
selected backup script will be displayed. To choose a backup script for that button you
want to click on the folder icon

below its box. If you ever decide you no longer want
that button active simply click the red X

next to the folder icon and it will clear the box
of your selected path.
Whenever you have a drive connected you want the TRI-Select Button Management
