other open windows using the command ALT+TAB.

Profile window appears.

the download and execution of ActiveX controls). 

4.  In the Internet Explorer Address bar, type the IP address you assigned to your Dominion 

device the previous section, Initial Configuration. Press ENTER to load and launch RRC.
