Controlling Services (Starting and Stopping)
For a service to start performing the function that it is programmed for you must start the service. This is
achieved by using the [1] key to start a service and the [2] key to stop a service.
If the service is running when you selected it to program a message will be displayed to indicate the service is
locked and can only be viewed. To edit the service you must press the [2] key to stop the service, wait for the
display to show the halted message and then proceed with programming.
