value of the parameter, and also allows changing the parameter’s value by clicking on the number in the value column and entering the new value.

Some items to keep in mind when interacting with the Parameter List are:

When entering new parameter values, be sure that the number being entered is appropriate for the currently-selected radix (refer to section 10.4.6): for example, an entered value of “1000” in hexadecimal is equal to 4096 in decimal.

If desired, the column widths can be changed by dragging the vertical bars that separate the header row’s cells to a different position.

If you begin changing a parameter value and then decide to abandon the change, pressing the ESC key on your keyboard will abandon the change and redisplay the current parameter value.

When editing a parameter value, clicking someplace off the entry cell is equivalent to hitting the ENTER key.

10.4.5 Parameter List Filter

A filter function provides Parameter List search capabilities. To use the filter function, simply type a word or portion of a word into the filter entry box and then click the “filter” button. Refer to Figure 14.

The filter will then display only those parameters currently available in the Parameter List that satisfy the search criteria. For example, to find all monitor parameters that contain some derivative of the word “volt” (such as “voltage” or “volts”), select the “Monitor Parameters” group, the “All”

subgroup, enter “volt” in the filter entry box, and then click the “filter” button.

Once a filter has been entered, it will continue to be applied to all information normally displayed in the Parameter List for as long as the filter term is left in the filter entry box. Continuing the previous example where we filtered on the root term “volt” in the monitor parameters, we can then easily apply this filter to all parameters (configuration, command or monitor) simply by selecting the “All” parameter group. The Parameter List will now display all configuration, command or monitor parameters that contain the root term “volt”.

To remove the filter, delete any characters contained in the filter entry box and then click the “filter” button.
