Operating the unit

This chapter is intended for using the NEO IP/GSM without the NPU, i.e. the  

functions described are how to use the NEO IP/GSM with the buttons etc. All 

functions are also programmable with the NPU and Programmer software and is 

indicated with a computer icon to the left of the paragraph.
