Configuring the Modules

Publication 1771Ć6.4.5 - January 1997

You can enter descriptive information for each module. This can be
any information you wish to associate with the module, such as
physical location, product being manufactured, etc. You can view
this information at any time; it is included in printed reports, as well.

To enter or view the module description:

1. At the Module Manager screen, select a module.

2. From the

Module menu, select Description...

The Module Description screen is displayed for the module you
selected.

3. Enter or edit the description for the module and click on

OK.

If you have several modules that are similar or identical, you can
configure one module and then use that module to configure other
similar modules.

Note: Before you do this, you may wish to perform the loop
configuration described in Chapter 5 of this manual, and the tuning
configuration described in Chapter 6. That way, those settings will
be copied to the other modules as well.

To copy configuration data from one module to another:

1. At the Module Manager screen, select the first (source) module.

2. From the

Edit menu, select Copy.

3. Select the second (destination) module.

The destination module can be in the same project or a different
project.
