Exit

Exiting takes you out of CompatiView. If you made changes to the informa-
tion in one or more edit areas (which will now appear in red) and have not
saved or downloaded them, you will be given an opportunity to do so.

The Database Menu

New Device Database

This option allows you to create configuration database files. If no other data-
base files have been created, CompatiView automatically saves a database
file, “MASTER.INI,” every time you close. When you use this option, an
empty configuration database will be created to which you may add new
devices and configurations.

Open Device Database

This option allows you to open existing configuration database files. When
you use this option, a list of files will be opened. Select a file from the list, or
browse through the files to find the one you want.

Delete Device

Use this menu option to delete a configuration from CompatiView’s Device
View.

First, mark the configuration in the list you wish to delete by clicking on it.
When you select the Delete menu option, you will be asked whether you wish
to remove the configuration from the Device View.

Device Properties

Use this menu option to add administrative information for a particular
device. You can enter a device’s physical location, a contact name for the
device, and a phone number for the contact. This information is maintained
in CompatiView and is not downloaded into the device.
