The Edit menu becomes available when you are on a Setup screen and can be opened by pressing  (EDIT). Depending on which Setup option (index tabs) is high- lighted, the Edit menu allows you to change field format- ting using these options:

•Alternate I/O Formats - setting up pointers can change a field to expect a Board:Point, Fixed Value, or Area Ctrl:Application:Property.

•Set Multiple Outputs - allows you to connect an output pointer to multiple input pointers.

•Output Change Delta - the +/- change that must occur at the output before the new value is used.

•Generic Alarm Setup - enables the user to custom- assign alarming parameters in the controller.

•Logging Setup - enables the user to turn logging on for a particular parameter. Note that if “L” appears next to the parameter, default logging has already been enabled for the Logging Group Cell.

•Bypass Setup - Opens screen for bypass input types, which are “Momentary” or “Level” triggered and remain active for a “Bypass Duration”. For example, Time Schedules have two such inputs.

•I/O Mode - toggles between displaying board names and board numbers.

•Setup I/O - allows user to enter an input or output point setup screen.
