Micro-PWC CONFIGURATION GUIDE

72 Hierarchical Displays

Once Group Configuration mode has been enabled, click the pushbutton containing the number of the
group to be configured. The Configure Group window (

Figure 3-5

) will be displayed.

The top half of the Configure Group window contains eight entry boxes in which to enter the tagnames of
up to eight controller tagnames which are to be included in the group.

The text entry cursor automatically appears in the entry box for the first tagname. Enter a tagname; if a tag-
name already exists, click a different entry box. Previously entered tagnames can be deleted using the
D

ELETE

key on the keyboard; the B

ACKSPACE

key can be used to delete text to the left of the cursor.

The Description entry box is located below the Tagname entry area. In the Description entry box, enter a
text string of up to 48 characters. This string will be used as both the Group Legend (at the top of the
Group Display) and as the label of the group’s block on the Summary display.

A group of radio buttons, labelled Model Type, is located below the Description entry box. These buttons
are labelled as follows:

4 point

6 point

8 point

Other

Click on one of the first three selections to choose a standard 4, 6 or 8 point group display format. The
space allowed for each point on the group display varies, depending on the maximum number of points in
the format. For example, a group display formatted for 4 points (

Figure 3-2

) provides twice as much room

per point on the display than a group display formatted for 8 points (

Figure 3-6

).
