Can you prepare a short step by step procedure that does not go into
detail, then follow with more detailed procedures of each step.
For example:
Overview procedure
Step 1: Configure the restart option
Step 2: Define the timeout
Step 3: . . .
.
.
.

Configuring the restart option
This option allows you to . . .
Step 1: . . .
Step 2: . . .
.
.
.

Defining the timeout
The timeout determines how long the XXX program waits for a response from
YYY. Once this amount of time passes without a response the restart
operation is performed.
Step 1: . . .
Step 2: . . .
.
