If you have modified some of the fields on a property page and then decide that these
modified values are not correct, use the Undo Page command on the Edit menu or Toolbar
to force the Configuration Manager to restore the content of all fields on the page to the
values which were in effect when you moved to that property page.
When you go to save your User Parameter File or prepare to move to another property
page, the Configuration Manager will validate all parameters on the page which you are
leaving. If any parameters are incomplete or inconsistent with each other, you will be
forced to fix the problem before being allowed to proceed.
Add, Edit and Delete AMX Objects
Separate property pages are provided to allow your definition of one or more AMX
objects such as tasks and timers which will be prebuilt by AMX when AMX is launched.
The maximum allowed quantities of each type of AMX object are defined by you on the
Objects property page.
Pages of this type include a list box at the left side of the property page in which the
currently defined objects are listed. At the bottom of the list box is a counter showing the
number of objects in the list and the allowable maximum number of objects as defined on
the Objects property page.
Also below the list are two control buttons labeled Add and Delete. If the allowable
maximum number of objects is 0 or if all such objects have already been defined, the Add
button will be disabled. If there are no objects defined, the Delete button and all other
fields on the page will be disabled.
To add a new object, click on the Add button. A new object named ---- will appear at
the bottom of the list and will be opened ready for editing. When you enter a valid tag
for the object, the tag will replace the name ---- in the object list.
To edit an existing object's definition, double click on the object's name in the object list.
The current values of all of that object's parameters will appear in the property page and
the object will be opened ready for editing.
To delete an existing object, click on the object's name in the object list. Then click on
the Delete button. Be careful because you cannot undo an object deletion.
The objects in the object list can be rearranged by dragging an object's n ame to the
desired position in the list. You cannot drag an object directly to the end of the list. To
do so, first drag the object to precede the last object on the list. Then drag the last object
on the list to precede its predecessor on the list.
Tasks are ordered in their object list by task priority. The highest priority task resides at
the top of the list. Tasks cannot be rearranged in their list by dragging the object. To do
so, change the task's priority.
