Configured

/kənˈfɪɡərd/ verb

Definition

arranged or set up something (especially computer equipment) in a particular way.

Etymology

From Latin 'configurare' combining 'con-' (together) and 'figurare' (to shape). It originally meant arranging things into a particular shape or pattern.

Kelly Says

This word jumped from geometry (arranging shapes) to computers, but the idea is identical—you're 'shaping' the system into a specific arrangement so it works the way you need it to!
