  • Patent number: 7426694
    Abstract: A system and method for customization of the settings configuration process for an intelligent electronics device is disclosed. The disclosed system and method permits the end user to customize not only the operation of an intelligent electronics device for a particular application, but also permits the end user to customize the process used to configure the settings of the device. A customized settings management user interface can be designed by an end user and can be used later during the settings configuration process for one or more intelligent electronics devices. Preferably, the customized settings management user interface will be tailored to meet application-specific objectives and to provide for a relatively more efficient settings configuration process.
