The Dynamo Menu is used to present the operator with applications they can select and run. This document lists the different options available.
Each Dynamo Menu has a three character Menu Code that is displayed in the upper left corner of the display. The Menu Code for the Main Menu is typically SYS. The Menu Code for the Dynamo Inquiry Functions menu shown below is INQ.
