Overview
The dCS 954 has many other functions that either need to be accessed only
occasionally, or are informative in nature. These functions can be accessed
either by the Remote software, running on a PC and connected to the unit by an
RS-232 link - or (in most cases) by the Menu, via the front panel. If a function is
set by the menu or the Remote, the unit remembers it, and it will be set this way
for ever (or until you set it to something different). You can customise your unit
in this way. Information-only items are displayed for a time, then the display
reverts to normal.
