Installation & Operation Manual

Using the Tool Bars

The tool bars at the bottom of several READCENTER screens include icons that provide shortcut access to many

time-saving features. The following information explains the icon functions in the order they appear on the tool bar.

System Tool Bar

Add – Adds a new record to the database. Typically, records are added automatically when a file is read in

from the billing system so this function is rarely needed.

Save – Saves account information to the database for the record currently selected.

Delete – Deletes the currently selected record from the database.

Undo – Restores account information to the last saved entries.

NOTE: Undo removes all information that has changed since you accessed the account record, not just the

latest change. Also, once you move away from a record, changes are saved automatically and cannot be

undone by choosing Undo.

Record Navigation – Navigation buttons as shown below may be used to move through records.

From left to right, arrow buttons move the cursor to the first row, previous row, next row and last row. The

number in the center indicates the row of the currently selected record.

History – Displays on the tool bar for the Account Records screen. Click History to open the Account

Records - History window providing access to the collected readings for the selected account.

To see a graph of hourly readings, type G (or g) in the text box and click OK. For more information, refer

to "Graph" on page 20.

To see a history of all saved readings, type R (or r) in the text box and click OK.

Lock – Used to determine user permissions at set up and by Technical Support for troubleshooting.

Close – Closes the screen.
