Message Operations

7–26

Entering the Increment Value

The increment value specifies the spacing (number of messages) between
messages that are renumbered.

To enter an increment value for the renumber operation, highlight Increment,
then press [Enter]. A numeric field opens to the right.

Enter an increment value, then press [Enter]. The default value of 0 retains
the original spacing.

Note: The Increment value has no affect on a single message operation. You
can move directly to Start Renumbering.

For example, to renumber messages 5 and 6 using a Starting Message
Location
of 20 and an Increment of 0 (to retain original spacing):

Message 5 is renumbered to Message 20
Message 6 is renumbered to Message 21

Note: You can reuse messages 5 and 6.

If renumbering messages 1, 3, 7 using a Starting Message Location of 20 and
an Increment of 0 (to retain original spacing):

Message 1 is renumbered to Message 20
Message 3 is renumbered to Message 22
Message 7 is renumbered to Message 26

Note: You can reuse messages 1, 3, and 7.

If renumbering messages 1, 2, and 3 using a Starting Message Location of 10
and an Increment of 2:

Message 1 is renumbered to Message 10
Message 2 is renumbered to Message 12
Message 3 is renumbered to Message 14

Note: You can reuse messages 1, 2, and 3.

After entering an increment value and pressing [Enter], the highlight moves
to Start Renumbering.
