SUM UI: Mandatory Input Elements
This chapter briefly deals with some input fields in the dialogs.
During the procedure with the Software Update Manager, you encounter a sequence of dialogs. They contain divers elements such as input fields, radio buttons, or checkboxes. These elements require your input such as a file name or a password, or your action such as ticking a checkbox or selecting a radio button.
Input fields or checkboxes are in general of type optional or mandatory. They can be distinguished by a little star ("asterisk") in front of the label of a checkbox or an input field, which indicates a mandatory input element. If you come across such an element, you must enter the required input, or you must tick the checkbox to proceed with the SUM procedure.
If an element is left empty, a warning is displayed, or the Next button is grayed out. The Software Update Manager thus prevents the next step.
