The Graphical User Interface (GUI) is a crucial element that helps users interact with the product intuitively and efficiently. Instead of text-based command inputs, the GUI uses visual elements (icons, buttons, menus, etc.) to enable users to easily access and utilize the product's various features.
This manual describes the components of the CIM's GUI, how they function, and the key features designed to optimize the user experience.
