4.10 Calibrate Touchscreen
Select System > Calibrate Touchscreen.
This function calibrates the touchscreen display for optimal response. Calibration should be done after
firmware upgrades, after battery replacement, or if the screen response begins to degrade after heavy
use.
The process requires you to touch the screen in several places with a stylus or other approved device.
Follow the instructions on the screen.
4.11 Licensed Options
Select System > Licensed Options.
This function reports which optional features are currently enabled for the base unit and modules (if any),
which may be required when seeking technical support. It also allows you to manually enable features by
entering valid key codes, which is may be required to enable licensed features on a new unit. To enter a
key code, press Update Key (F1) and enter the key exactly as provided by Spirent. Note the following:
• For licensing changes to take effect, you must reboot the unit or cycle it through sleep mode. For
more information, see Powering on/off and sleep mode on page 1-9.
• The unit requires a unique key code for each licensed feature. For example, to enable both the web
browser and IP video testing, you need to enter two different codes.
• You do not need to enter anything except the code itself. The unit will recognize the feature to which it
applies and then list that feature as enabled.
• A key code is specific to a unit and will not work on any other unit.
• Key codes must be provided by Spirent. In some cases, the codes required for your licensed feature
set are shipped in the package with the unit. If you have trouble with the codes or require new codes
for any reason, please contact Spirent.
4.12 Update Firmware
Select System > Update Firmware.
This function initiates the firmware upgrade process. You must supply the IP address of a networked host
