Accessing the DCS120 Step Editor screen

To go to the Step Editor screen from the main DCS120 screen, press Ctrl-S. To return to the main screen,
press Esc.

Step Editor Commands

To cut and paste regions of the table, hold down the Shift key and move around with the cursor keys to select
the desired region. After you select it, you can cut it with Ctrl-X or copy it with Ctrl-C and paste it with Ctrl-V.

Ctrl-G will 'go' to the next Step in the sequence. You can use Ctrl-G to step through a sequence and confirm it
operates as expected. If you enter an 'e' in the link type field, the Enhanced Event Editor will start. This editor
will assemble the needed link type value based on your selections in this editor.

Ctrl-Z will set all values in the table to zero.
