+#### Configuring to use default input data
+
+To configure the project to use default input data for each use case, you can use the following CMake option `USE_SINGLE_INPUT`.
+This will be set to `false` if not specified. Specifying it as `true` will result in each use case automatically running with predefined input data, thus removing the need for the user to use a telnet terminal to specify the input data. For Example:
+
+```commandline
+cmake ../ -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=scripts/cmake/toolchains/bare-metal-armclang.cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DUSE_SINGLE_INPUT=True
+```
