Navigation Tree

The Settings view allows you to configure the drive to fit your specific application. When you click Settings in the navigation pane located to the left of the WorkBench screen, additional views for configuring your drive appear. By default, only settings applicable to your current drive operation mode and command source will appear in this tree. To show all settings available for the AKD (even if the these settings are not used with the current operation mode and command source), right click on Settings and select Show all Settings.
