Add Entry and Insert Entry

Choose Add Entry to create a new event entry at the end of
the list of existing entries. Choose Insert Entry to insert a
new event entry at the current cursor position. Normally the
order of the event entries is not important because they
simply represent the list of discrete events that are to be
monitored and recorded as they change state.

After choosing Add or Insert Entry a dialog box will open
where you can define the variable name for the event entry.
The Add Entry dialog is shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2. Sequence of Events: Add Entry Dialog.

You only need to enter the name of the variable for each
entry. The description of the variable will automatically be
imported by the editor from the I/O, shared variable or system
variable definitions.
