- Save the updated configuration to the MTCH2120 device by clicking the Save button
- Reset the device by clicking the "Software Reset" button. Or reset the device by power cycling the kit

When the Active Driven Shield option is selected, Button 11 becomes non-operational. The LED for Button 11 will toggle to indicate this status.
