Figure 3-1

).

Figure 3-1 Opening the Configuration Editor

The editor can also be accessed from the Cygnus icon’s context menu, which is
available by right-clicking on the icon. See

Figure 3-2

.

Figure 3-2 Cygnus Controller’s Context Menu

This context menu allows you to access the most recently edited Configuration or
edit a new or existing Configuration.

HINT: When editing a Configuration for an attached Controller, the best starting

point is the choice of Query Controller Cfg as shown in

Figure 3-3

. This

selection reads the entire Configuration from the Controller and fills the
Editor pages with all the parameters of the Configuration file. This allows for
full synchronization of the parameter settings before any changes are made
through the Editor. As changes are made they can be checked, by the
Editor, against other related parameters to ensure that no conflicts exist.
