Step 4. Select OK to repair the slot or Cancel to return to the Rack
Configurator window without executing the changes.
6.11 GoTo Menu
The GoTo Menu is used to search by name for variables mapped to
modules in the rack. It is also used to zoom in and out of the three
levels (local rack<ĆĆ>remote rack or head<ĆĆ>digital rail) of
configuration forms in the Rack Configurator and to access the
Variable Configurator from the Rack Configurator.
6.11.1 Locating a Variable by Name
Select Wildcard Search for Variable from the GoTo menu in the Rack
Configurator to locate a variable by name. Follow the procedure
below to search for a variable.
Step 1.
Enter the variable name without the variable type
character. Note that question mark (?) and asterisk (*)
wildcard characters are allowed in the search string. For
example, you could enter SPD* to find SPD_REF%.
Step 2. Select the option button indicating whether the variable is
a local variable or a networkĆwide variable.
Step 3. Select OK to begin the search. A dialog box will be
displayed indicating if a match was found, the type and
location of the variable found, and the slot number.
Step 4. Select Yes if you want to search for another match. A
dialog box will tell you when there are no additional
matches. Selecting OK will return you to the Search for
Variable dialog box. You can repeat the search or change
the variable name or search mode. Select No to display
the form containing the variable name requested. The
variable name will be selected.
The search procedure will take you into the Variable Configurator.
You can return to the Rack Configurator by zooming out (see
section 7.6 for additional information). However, note that upon
returning to the Rack Configurator, the module that is selected will be
the same one selected before the Search was performed, rather than
the module containing the variable that was searched for.
6.11.2 Zooming In and Zooming Out
The Zoom In command will move you to the next lower level (greater
detail). If there is another hardware level below the selected module
(such as for the Remote I/O module (M/N 57C416), which contains"
the remote I/O network, or the DIgital Rail (M/N 45C1), which contains
2Ćbit I/O modules), zoom in will always take you to that view. At the
lowest hardware level (all other modules), zoom in will access the
Variable Configurator described in section 7. To access the Variable
Configurator for either the Remote I/O or the Digital Rail modules, use
the Configure Variables command, which always accesses the
Variable Configurator, regardless of the module selected. The Zoom
Out command reverses the process, taking you back to the next
higher level. When using a mouse, doubleĆclicking the left button on
the module performs a Zoom In command on that module, and
