The 40-Series introduces a number of unique features. Here are some brief
descriptions.
Configurations
The powerbase stores four “configurations” — which are complete setups with
data settings for every parameter. This means the OEM can have four configu
-
rations in one product—in effect, four products in one. The dealer can stock
just one “4-in-1” model and use the Configuration parameter to select the most
appropriate data block for each chair and each customer.
Each configuration is a complete setup, including two profiles for each.
This means the 1740 actually holds eight different ready-made setups.
