Micro-PWC CONFIGURATION GUIDE

System Configuration 41

From the System Window, select Menu > Configure > Network Params > Message Routing to display a
window similar to that shown in

Figure 2-20

.

The Message Routing Assignment window contains a matrix of Devices and Message Classes. Only
Devices which have been configured through the Printer Assignment window (see

Section 2.8.3, Printer

Assignment

) will appear as part of the matrix.

Each Message Class has a button for each available device. To route messages to a device, click the but-
ton that corresponds to both the Message Class and device desired. An X will appear on the face of the
button. If no messages are being routed for a Device/Message Class combination, the button is blank.

Each Device has a Filter button, which provides access to message filtering functions. Each Message
Class in the matrix has a Color pushbutton, used to define the color of messages in that Message Class,
and a Space pushbutton, used to define the number of spaces that messages of that Message Class are
to be indented.

2.8.4.1 Message Type Filtering

If all Message Types for all Message Classes are being routed to a device, the face of the Filter button will
be blank. If any Message Types for any of the Message Classes have been filtered (not routed to a
device), the Filter button will display an F.

To filter Message Types for a particular device, click on the Filter button for the device which is to receive
filtered messages. The Device Routing Assignment window, shown in

Figure 2-21

, will be displayed. The

left side of the Device Routing Assignment window contains a button for each Message Class. Process

is the default Message Class, which is shown in

Figure 2-21

the Message Class to be filtered. The name of the selected Message Class appears in the upper right cor-
ner of the window. A list of MessageTypes for the selected Message Class appears in the Message Type
display section on the right side of the window. Each of the Message Types is preceded by a toggle button.
Click these toggle buttons to select which Message Types for each Message Class are to be routed to a
device. By default, all Message Types are routed (indicated by the toggle button in the “in” or “pressed”
position).

All Message Types for the currently selected Message Class can be set or cleared by clicking Set or Clear.
All Message Types for all Message Classes can be set or cleared simultaneously, by clicking Set All or
Clear All.
