Number callout in graphic - Item

The backup filename will contain a date and time
stamp in the filename. For example:
FTIIM_YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.HWI.

View: Use to show or hide the Toolbar and Status Bar.

Options: Use to rename resources or reconfigure
processors.

Rename Resources: Selecting this option automatically
renames resources to eliminate name conflicts. You should
only select this option before you create a configuration
using Station Builder. Once you assign a resource to a
configuration, renaming that resource in the .hwi file will
invalidate the configuration file.

When you select this option, the Hwi File Editor renames
all of the analog input/output, digital input/output (except
on a GRES card), and HPU and HSM resources using
syntax that includes the slot number and connector name
in the resource name.

For example, a 493.25 DUC in the first mezzanine location
on an I/O Carrier in slot 5 is named 493.25 DUC S5-J4.
Conditioners and valve drivers assigned to A/Ds or D/As
use the conditioner/driver model, chassis and connector.
For example, a 497.22 dual DC conditioner in chassis 2,
slot 10, and channel 1 is named 497.22 DDC C2-J1001.

After selecting this option, review the new names to make
sure they are acceptable. When you create a station with
these renamed resources (with Station Builder) and open
that station (with Station Manager), the HPU and HSM
resources will appear on the Station Manager panel as
they are saved in the .hwi file.

You can use Station Builder to assign logical display names
(such as load, displacement) to other types of resources
when allocating those resources to create a test station.

Reconfigure Processors: For Controllers equipped with the
Time History Playback (THP) option and two processors,
this option allows you to change the way the processors
are initialized.

Note:

This option will be grayed-out if your controller is not
equipped for THP, or has only one or three
processors.

Detect Hardware: This option automatically detects VME
and transition bus hardware and adds those resources to
the Hwi File Editor tree view pane.
