Shown above is a typical page of the ACS web interface in Wizard Mode. The
user entry panel or form varies depending on the selected menu item. The
ACS uses forms and dialog boxes (i.e., pop-up windows that prompt you for
an answer or command) for data entry.
Expert Mode
Designed for advanced users, this is the default mode when you log in the
ACS. You can also change to this mode by clicking the Expert button at the
bottom of the menu panel switches the web interface from Wizard to Expert
Mode. Shown below is a typical ACS screen in Expert Mode. A main
difference between the two modes is the addition of a top menu bar in the
Expert Mode to support a wider array of menu choices.
The top menu bar is the primary menu; the left menu panel is the secondary
menu. Based on what you select from the top menu bar, the left menu
selections will change accordingly..
