General Rules and Tips for Using the Remote Monitor

1.8.2Screen Flagging

The screen-flagging feature is a tool to help you remember which screens you have changed, that you have not sent them to the Access Bank II, and to allow you to more efficiently send changes to the Access Bank II. It is not an automatic-flagging feature; you must manually flag and unflag screens. Screens are flagged or unflagged by right- clicking on the screen tab.

1.8.3Changing to a New Product

When you click the New Product item on the File menu, then click on a product name, the default configuration is loaded. You can also do the same thing by selecting a differ- ent product name from the Current Product dropdown menu on the toolbar. Any changes not saved will be lost.

If you check the “Please don’t ask me about this again” box on the warning screen, the system will always prompt you to save the configuration file for the previous product. Note that this will cause this particular question to always be answered Yes.

1.8.4Saving Configurations

Save Configuration and Save Configuration As save the current configuration to a file (database) on the Remote Monitor PC’s hard drive. If you made changes to screens of a configuration you loaded previously, Save Configuration will overwrite the original con- figuration file.

If you have previously checked Please Don’t Ask Me About This Again on the Confirm Configuration File Save on Open/New confirmation screen that appears when you load a configuration, software assumes you want to save and asks you for a file name. If you do not want to save, simply Cancel

The Compact Configuration File option on the File pull-down menu compresses the con- figuration file to about one fifth its original size.

If you are working in the field, it can be useful to keep several configuration files on a floppy disk.
