Modifying the CVIM Menus
5–12
Here are some additional considerations when editing text:
Multiple Menu Usage of a Dictionary Entry: In some cases, the same
dictionary entry is used in more than one menu. Modifying the entry will
affect all menus containing that entry.
For example if you modify the dictionary entry Gage to read Gauge , the
change is seen both on the main menu, and in the Gauge 1: Enabled box,
as shown in the diagram below, because both used the same dictionary entry.
Words Used in Multiple Entries: In some cases, a word may be used in
more than one dictionary entry. Thus, to modify all occurrences of that
word, you must modify each of the dictionary entries where it appears.
For example, if you modify the dictionary entry Gage to read Gauge , the
Define Gage box remains unchanged, as shown below, because it uses a
different dictionary entry:
“Define Gage” is not affected by modification of the dictionary
entry “Gage” to read “Gauge.”
“Gauge” now appears in these two menu
items, both of which use the same dictionary
entry.
Maximum Size / Truncation: A text modification is truncated upon entry if
it exceeds the maximum size (four lines, 47 characters per line). Also, upon
display, a dictionary entry which is too long to fit into its respective display
area (such as a menu box) is truncated to fit the area.
Restricted Dictionary Entries: Certain dictionary entries cannot be
modified, because doing so would affect the functionality of the respective
menu item. If you locate a restricted dictionary entry, the
Status message in
the keyboard display area shows this message: ID ## cannot be changed.
An example of a restricted entry is shown below:
Other Restrictions: Menu items which are a part of installed software
options (other than the USER–PAK option) are not listed among the
dictionary entries, and will not be located when you search for text, nor will
the text in the title banner which identifies the CVIM module firmware series
and revision number, and the installed options. Thus these items cannot be
edited.
