User Interface Basics

Renaming Multiple Objects

3.Use the Alpha Wheel or Plus/Minus buttons to highlight objects. When an object whose name you want to change is highlighted, press the Select soft button to select the object. Note the asterisk that appears between the object’s ID and its name.

4.When you’ve selected all the objects you want to rename, press OK. The following dialog appears. The name you see is the name of the last object you selected.

<>KbdNaming:Off

ObjectName:Badname

DeleteInsert<<<>>>OKCancel

5.Use your favorite method to enter a slash (/), followed by the string of characters that you want to replace. This function is case-sensitive, so you can enter both capitals and lower- case characters. In this example, we’re going to change “Bad” to “Good.”

<>KbdNaming:Off

ObjectName:/Bad

DeleteInsert<<<>>>OKCancel

6.When you’ve entered the desired string of characters, press OK, and the dialog changes to prompt you to enter the replacement string. Notice that we entered only the characters B-a-d, and not the entire name of the object. Enter the new string, as shown below.

<>KbdNaming:Off

Replacewith:Good

DeleteInsert<<<>>>OKCancel

7.Press OK. The K2661 asks you if you’re sure (unless you have confirmations turned off). Press Yes. The NAME page reappears. Every RAM object whose name contained Bad now contains Good instead.
