THE USER INTERFACE
Win-Situ 4 and Pocket-Situ 4 use the familiar “Navigation tree” to
display your instrument network. The tree appears on the left of the
screen in Win-Situ, and at the top of the screen in Pocket-Situ. The
remainder of the screen is an “Information pane” with details about
the “node” you have selected in the tree. The selected node and its
information constitute a “view” in the interface.
THE NAVIGATION TREE
At the top of the tree is the
“Home” site (the host
computer). Below
this is the Flow-
Sense Wizard (see
Section 20), then the
Data Folder contain-
ing tests that have been
extracted from the device to the host computer. This is followed by
one or more connections (COM ports), and then one or more devices
(Multi-Parameter TROLLs or other In-Situ instruments) accessible
through each COM port. The Device node is further expandable to
show the parameters the device can measure and the tests contained
in the device’s memory.
The site, wizard, data folder, connection, devices, parameters, and
tests are all “nodes” in the Navigation tree. The symbol + means a
node can be expanded to show more nodes below it. Each selection
results in a unique “view” in the Navigation tree.
