CONTEXT-SENSITIVE HELP FOR SCRIPTS
To help you write error-free scripts, VMX300(-E) provides context-sensitive help in the form of pop-up lists. Select an item in the pop-up list and
press Enter to enter the item into the current line.
Use pop-up lists as follows:
•At the beginning of a new line, press Ctrl-Space Bar to open a pop-up list of commands.

•After a command, press the space bar once to open a pop-up list of items that can occur as an argument.

•In a command argument that includes an object property, press “.” after the object to open a pop-up list of valid properties for that object.

NOTE: In order for a device’s properties to be presented in a context-sensitive pop-up list, the object’s properties must be exposed. By
default, device properties are exposed. Refer to Edit a Device’s Local Settings for information on exposing properties.
