is to start with one active profile, Profile0. Buttons are available to Rename or Edit this profile, or to
Add more profiles. If there are multiple profiles, you can Delete some if you wish. The Select Active

or dbm as the measurement unit when signal strength is displayed. The About button shows the ACU
version.
