• Users can create custom home screen dashboards to display the information they use most often. These dashboards can be named and saved in the favorites menu, and quickly recalled any time.

• Easy-to-access front panel external USB port for backing up tool number memory, capturing screen shots, attaching a bar code scanner, keyboard, mouse, or other USB devices.
• The new Options Manager allows users to add, enable, or disable firmware options without having to upgrade the SmartPAC PRO firmware. Simply enter an activation code, and the option will be initialized.
