Adding Keywords in Patch
If you plan on being able to query channels based on a keyword association, the keyword must be
defined in patch.
To enter a keyword for a channel:
Step 1:
Press [Displays], to the right of the CIA.
Step 2:
Press {Patch} at the bottom of the CIA.
Step 3:
Press {Database}.
Step 4:
Select a channel or range of channels in the command line.
Step 5:
Touch one of the {Text (1-4)} touchbuttons in the CIA to specify which keyword you
are entering. The virtual keyboard will appear.
Step 6:
Type the keyword or words you wish to use. You may use either the virtual or external
keyboard.
Step 7:
When finished, press [Enter].
Once keywords have been created, they will appear in the keyword section of the CIA when a query
is performed. For more information on keyword queries see
.
Deleting Channels
It is possible to delete channels in patch. Deleting channels is different from unpatching in that
deleted channels cannot be manipulated or have parameter data stored for them. When deleted,
the channel numbers will still be visible in the live/blind display, but the channel outline, containing
the parameters and level information, will be removed from the display.
For Example:
To delete channels in the patch display, press:
•
[6] [Thru] [1] [0] [Delete] [Enter] [Enter]
In the live blind display, the channel numbers will still be visible but the channel outlines and
parameter data will be hidden from view.
