Sections are enabled by default. This menu item disables a selected section and all of its

 

keys. Disabled sections remain in the file with a gray folder .

Disable All

If you disable a section that has child sections, all of its child sections (and the child section

 

keys) are disabled automatically. The child section folders are also in gray.

 

When reading the EXM file, the terminal behaves as though disabled sections are not there

 

and moves on to read the next enabled section.

 

Disabled sections can be removed from the EXM file permanently using the Simplify

 

Document (see page 4-3)option. If you want to keep disabled sections in the EXM file on the

 

workstation but not in the file deployed to the terminal, use the Simplified option (see page 4-

 

3).

inserted below the previous section.
