==Device Optional Configuration==

Within the next steps you will see optional configuration sections for record profile settings, features and permanent I/O element configuration. These setup options are not mandatory although it is recommended to configure them to make sure the device is fully set-up.

After completing Data Acquisition settings configuration and clicking <b>Next</b> you will be forwarded to the Features Configuration window. There are three sections: driving behavior, vehicle protection and other features. You can see the available features at the bottom of each section window.

To learn more about the available features please go to the [[TCT Features]] page. <br />

After clicking <b>Next</b> you will be forwarded to the last optional configuration page which is Input / Output (I/O). Page contains three sections: permanent I/O, OBD and LVCAN. In case of device setup you are suggested to configure permanent I/O section which contains the main device's I/O elements such as: Movement, Ignition, DINs, DOUTs, Speed etc. More on the available I/O elements visit the following Wiki page [[TCT I/O elements]].
