AXiS's Home Screen
Your irst point of contact with AXiS's
interface is the home screen. We think
the various modes will be fairly self-
explanatory and easy to ind but here we
offer a short description of the function
of each of the homepage icons.
Gently press and release an icon
to access the relevant mode.
