+# Standalone UI Update: Get ALL Settings Button
+
+## What Was Added
+
+A new **"Get ALL Settings"** button has been added to the standalone web UI at [templates/index.html](templates/index.html).
+
+## Location
+
+The button is located in the **Measurement Settings** fieldset, at the top before the individual frequency and time weighting controls.
+
+## Visual Layout
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ Measurement Settings                                 │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│                                                      │
+│  [Get ALL Settings]  ← NEW BUTTON (bold styling)    │
+│                                                      │
+│  Frequency Weighting:                               │

+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+## Functionality
+
+When clicked, the button:
+
+1. **Shows loading message**: "Retrieving all device settings (this may take 10-15 seconds)..."
+
+2. **Calls API**: `GET /api/nl43/{unit_id}/settings`
+
+3. **Displays results in two places**:
+   - **Status area** (top): Shows formatted JSON with all settings
+   - **Log area** (bottom): Shows each setting on a separate line
+
+## Example Output
+
+### Status Area Display
+```json
+{
+  "measurement_state": "Stop",
+  "frequency_weighting": "A",
+  "time_weighting": "F",
+  "measurement_time": "00:01:00",
+  "leq_interval": "1s",
+  "lp_interval": "125ms",
+  "index_number": "0",
+  "battery_level": "100%",
+  "clock": "2025/12/24,20:45:30",
+  "sleep_mode": "Off",
+  "ftp_status": "On"
+}
+```
+
+### Log Area Display
+```
+Retrieving all device settings (this may take 10-15 seconds)...
+=== ALL DEVICE SETTINGS ===
+measurement_state: Stop
+frequency_weighting: A
+time_weighting: F
+measurement_time: 00:01:00
+leq_interval: 1s
+lp_interval: 125ms
+index_number: 0
+battery_level: 100%
+clock: 2025/12/24,20:45:30
+sleep_mode: Off
+ftp_status: On
+===========================
+```
+
+## Code Changes
+
+### HTML Changes (Line 60)
+```html
+<button onclick="getAllSettings()" style="margin-bottom: 12px; font-weight: bold;">
+  Get ALL Settings
+</button>
+```
+
+### JavaScript Changes (Lines 284-305)
+```javascript
+async function getAllSettings() {
+  const unitId = document.getElementById('unitId').value;
+  log('Retrieving all device settings (this may take 10-15 seconds)...');
+
+  const res = await fetch(`/api/nl43/${unitId}/settings`);
+  const data = await res.json();
+
+  if (!res.ok) {
+    log(`Get All Settings failed: ${res.status} - ${data.detail || JSON.stringify(data)}`);
+    return;
+  }
+
+  // Display in status area
+  statusEl.textContent = JSON.stringify(data.settings, null, 2);
+
+  // Log summary
+  log('=== ALL DEVICE SETTINGS ===');
+  Object.entries(data.settings).forEach(([key, value]) => {
+    log(`${key}: ${value}`);
+  });
+  log('===========================');
+}
+```
+
+## Usage Flow
+
+1. **Configure device** using the "Unit Config" section
+2. **Click "Get ALL Settings"** to retrieve current configuration
+3. **Review settings** in the Status and Log areas
+4. **Verify** critical settings match requirements before starting measurements
+
+## Benefits
+
+✓ **Quick verification** - One click to see all device settings
+✓ **Pre-measurement check** - Ensure device is configured correctly
+✓ **Debugging** - Identify misconfigured settings easily
+✓ **Documentation** - Copy settings from status area for records
+✓ **Comparison** - Compare settings across multiple devices
+
+## Error Handling
+
+If the request fails:
+- Error message is displayed in the log
+- Status code and details are shown
+- Previous status display is preserved
+
+Example error output:
+```
+Retrieving all device settings (this may take 10-15 seconds)...
+Get All Settings failed: 502 - Failed to communicate with device
+```
+
+## Testing the Feature
+
+1. **Start the SLMM server**:
+   ```bash
+   cd /home/serversdown/slmm
+   uvicorn app.main:app --reload --port 8100
+   ```
+
+2. **Open the standalone UI**:
+   ```
+   http://localhost:8100
+   ```
+
+3. **Configure a device**:
+   - Enter Unit ID (e.g., "nl43-1")
+   - Enter Host IP (e.g., "192.168.1.100")
+   - Enter Port (e.g., "80")
+   - Click "Save Config"
+
+4. **Test the new button**:
+   - Click "Get ALL Settings"
+   - Wait 10-15 seconds for results
+   - Review settings in Status and Log areas
