Configuring the MIM01 when connected to a VBOXmini
When a MIM01 is connected to a VBOXMini, the VBOXMini will automatically log all of the input channels.
Each of the input channels has configuration attributes that can be configured through the VBOXMini. Changing the Name, Units and Scale etc for a channel
is not required but makes the logged data much easier to understand. For the digital input channels setting the correct mode and other attributes should be
done to ensure coherent data.

To Configure any of the input channel parameters, change the mode to Input Module Mode
press the MENU button to enter the Input Module Menu.

use the ▲▼buttons to scroll up and down the channel list then press OK to edit the Channel setup screen for an individual channel
then press the ▲▼buttons to scroll up and down the list of channel parameters then press OK to edit one.
Editing Name/Units:

Move the highlight box to the character you wish to edit using the ▲▼buttons then press OK to edit the character, and then press the ▲▼buttons to scroll
through an alphanumeric list when you have highlighted the character you want then press the OK button. Then move to the next character you wish to edit.

Editing Scale/Offset:
