324 Appendix A - Setting OpenLNS CT Default Options
Copy Values on
Functional Block
Copy Copies CP values when creating a new functional block from a
master SmartShape or from another functional block.
This check box is only available if the Enable Configuration
Properties check box has been selected, and it is selected by default.
Scope: Current network, all OpenLNS CT computers
Relax CP Scope
Matching Enables OpenLNS CT to re-attempt the validation of the creation of
a functional block from a custom master SmartShape or the
replication of configuration property values from one functional
block to another using a lower scope selector if the initial validation
operation fails using the defined scope selector.
For example, if you attempt to create a functional block from a
custom master SmartShape that has a defined scope selector of 6 but
the validation operation fails, OpenLNS CT will then try to validate
the functional block again using scope 3. If the validation re-attempt
succeeds, the operation will be allowed.
Scope: All networks, current OpenLNS CT computer
CP Value Source
New Devices Selects the source of configuration property values for new devices.
You have two choices:
• Defaults. The default configuration property values from the
device template will be copied to the device. The default
configuration property values in the device template may have
been copied from the original manufacturer’s device interface
(XIF) file, or may have been updated from a device. This is the
default
• Device. The current configuration properties in the device will
be kept and will be copied to the device template.
A new device may have settings different from the defaults if
the device configuration properties were set on a network other
than the current network.
Scope: Current network, current OpenLNS CT computer
Existing Devices Selects the source of configuration property values for existing
devices. You have three choices:
• Database. The configuration property values stored in the
OpenLNS database will be copied to the device when a device is
commissioned, replaced, or loaded. This is the default
• Defaults. The default configuration property values from the
device template will be copied to the device when a device is
commissioned, replaced, or loaded.
• Device. The current configuration properties in the device will
be kept and will be copied to the device template when a device
is commissioned, replaced, or loaded.
