The main window of the Battery Manager software is divided into main menu (1), tool bar (2), docking windows (3) and status bar (4).
The main menu (a.k.a. the menu bar) you can find on top as usual. Here the keyboard shortcuts are implemented allowing the program functions to be activated more quickly. The main menu consists of the following areas which are explained in detail by the "Main Menu and Components" section:

The tool bar is located directly below the main menu and holds the most important symbols of the main menu for a faster access. Here you can find the file functions (File menu), the clipboard functions (Edit menu), the preferences (Setup menu), the database functions (Database menu), the network connection management (Network menu) as well as the window management (Window menu) and the help system (Help menu).
In addition to the symbols the tool bar can be configured the way, that the associated labels under the symbols are being displayed. You can find a detailed description of the tool bar functions in the section "Main Menu and Components".
The docking windows are the central components of the Battery Manager software. Here you will find all the important functions such as displaying datasets for batteries and manufacturers as well as the special functions like program messages (logs) and results. The windows will each be represented by small icons that are integrated in the dock. Possible window positions are on top, left, right, and bottom. The docking windows are structurally designed for either horizontal or vertical use, a move from left to right or from bottom to top etc. is possible.
The docking windows can either be attached to the dock as shown above or can be displayed as separate windows. This is useful, for example, in order to deploy standalone windows such as the device window in an optimal way. Currently, the following docking windows are delivered with the Battery Manager software, which are described in section "Docking Windows" in detail:
The status bar at the bottom of the main window is used by program to output important messages for the user. The area to the right contains other components such as to indicate the state of the clipboard (whether texts, files etc. have been copied) and to show the progress of ongoing tasks. Far right, the time of the PC clock is being displayed. Some components of the status bar can also be hidden, also the status bar can be hidden completely in order to save place in favor of other components.
For detailed information on how to configure the status bar see section "Main Menu and Components".
