10.18.2.1 The Edit Menu

The Edit menu becomes available when you are on a

Setup screen and can be opened by pressing

 (EDIT).

Depending on which Setup option (index tabs) is high-
lighted, the Edit menu allows you to change field format-
ting using these options:

• Alternate I/O Formats - setting up pointers can

change a field to expect a Board:Point, Fixed
Value
, or Area Ctrl:Application:Property.

• Set Multiple Outputs - allows you to connect an

output pointer to multiple input pointers.

• Output Change Delta - the +/- change that must

occur at the output before the new value is used.

• Generic Alarm Setup - enables the user to custom-

assign alarming parameters in the controller.

• Logging Setup - enables the user to turn logging on

for a particular parameter. Note that if “L” appears
next to the parameter, default logging has already
been enabled for the Logging Group Cell.

• Bypass Setup - Opens screen for bypass input

types, which are “Momentary” or “Level” triggered
and remain active for a “Bypass Duration”. For
example, Time Schedules have two such inputs.

• I/O Mode - toggles between displaying board

names and board numbers.

• Setup I/O - allows user to enter an input or output

point setup screen.
