5. Using Configure Station
The Configure Station dialog boxes for a Local, Central or Service computer facilitate setting
up communication and alarm reporting. The first time the BMDM runs, at the "Do you want
to load a sample database?" message, select No to display the boxes. You may later open
these boxes by selecting Setup|Configure Station.

To start Configure Station, select Setup|Configure Station. The Monitor Connection Type
dialog box appears. Because subsequent boxes depend on previous selections, each box is
described without reference to others. For more details on dialog box items, refer to the
sections mentioned.
