*A “3” indicates the associated item has a pull-down list from
which a selection can be made.
The preceding table indicates message and pull-down menu aspects of the Channel and Alarm Setup
Dialog Box.
The pull-down list selection or copy/paste process are useful for making multiple channel configuration
changes within a column. You may double-click within a cell to make your way through all the
possible selections. The selections are repetitive; in other words, you will eventually advance to the
same selection with which you started.
The following text provides more detail regarding the channel and alarm configuration parameters.
The number preceding the text refers to the column number with “1” being the left-hand column and
“10” being the right-hand column of the Channel and Alarm Setup Dialog Box.
