5 Choosing factory default settings

Sometimes it may be useful to reset the EK80 system to work with a set of known user settings. A set of "factory settings" is provided for this purpose. The factory settings may be put to use if you are uncertain of which values to use. They offer the "best practice" settings for typical use.

Context

The User Settings dialog box is used to store your favourite settings. These settings can be related to different operations, environmental conditions or basic personal preferences. You can use different settings to create as many user profiles as you like, and give them any name. All the settings you have chosen using functions and dialog boxes in the user interface are saved. To activate either a factory setting or a saved setting, select the relevant name in one of the lists, then select Activate Selected Setting. The factory settings cannot be changed.

When you want to apply the factory settings a small dialog box opens to request your confirmation.

Note

Unless they are saved, all your current settings are lost when the factory settings are applied. There is no "undo".
