and project memory; clear memory and reset all values and conditions back to the original
factory defaults.
The four Main Menu selections are:

Accessing the System Setup Screens
There are three ways to access the System Setup Screens in the EA9-RHMI.
1) On the HMI by moving the RUN/STOP switch to the STOP position
2) From a connected compatible touch screen using the Key Button Object
3) From the C-more Software and using the RHMI USB Remote utility
With no project loaded
To access the Main Menu of the HMI System Setup Screens prior to downloading a project,
move the RUN/STOP switch to the STOP position as shown below. If a display is attached
to the EA9-RHMI, the Main Menu will be displayed.
