Installing Optional Extension Modules

Manage Extension
Modules

The Dynamix 2500 data collector lets you hide installed extension modules from
the Main Menu. You may need to hide an advanced extension module icon, for
example, RUCD and FRF, from an inexperienced user.

Follow these instructions to hide or show an extension module icon on the Main
Menu.

1.

Press 0 (Shift) on the Setup Utility screen to display the Extension
Manager function.

The Extension Manager function should remain on the screen for
approximately three seconds after releasing 0 (Shift).

2.

Press F1 (Extn Mgr).

The Extension Manager screen appears.

The Extension Manager displays a list of installed extension modules.

The F2 function key toggles between Hide and Show depending on if the
selected extension module is hidden.

IMPORTANT

Once an extension module is hidden, its icon is not represented on the
Main Menu or displayed in the Dynamix 2500 data collector About
screen.

TIP

You have to exit and re-enter the Extension Manager after hiding an
extension module to have the Show function appear.

The extension modules that
are hidden are shown in
[square brackets].
