All settings are stored in [[Cumulus.ini]], so when you stop and restart MX, it can continue without you entering settings again.
Adjusting the majority of them is best done using the MX "admin interface" screens, you will see that '''Settings''' is the penultimate option in the navigation bar, and it has a drop down for the various settings screens that are now described. [[File:Settings Menu.png|right]]
For most screens a HTML form element is used, there is a '''Save''' button to send the contents of that form for processing, and that must be clicked (and an acknowledgement displayed that the form processing has completed) before the edited settings are accepted. To make it easy to change settings, such setting screens uses tick boxes, radio buttons, and drop down selection boxes, so the choices available are clearly laid out. These form based MX settings screens do some validation, and if you make an error the contents change to a red colour (red text and red boxes), that means invalid data is present which must be corrected before the form can be sent by pressing '''Save''' button. One or more items on the page will have an error message added by the form processing in those validation fail cases.
