Group assignment of a DP slave

Dialog for group assignment of a DP slave

This dialog is used for assigning the slave to one or more of the eight possible groups.
The universally applicable group properties (Sync. Mode and/or Freeze Mode), on the
other hand, are defined during configuration of the master's properties (see DP
parameters of the DP master, 'Group properties'). This dialog can also be reached via
the Global Group Properties button.

The group(s) to which the slave is assigned are marked with a plus sign. The
assignment to or removal from a group is accomplished by selecting the group name
in the Group Membership column and pressing 'Add slave to group' or 'Remove slave
from group' with the right mouse button, or by clicking again with the mouse to the
left of the group name.

A slave device can only be assigned to those groups whose properties it supports. The
concerned properties of each slave (Sync. Mode / Freeze Mode) are displayed above
the table. The modes supported by the device are checked.
