Creating control list selectors
Control list selectors let an operator scroll through a list of states for a process and select
one of the states. A highlight in the list shows the current state.
Selecting states in a control list selector
A control list selector can show several states at the same time, but only one state can be
selected at a time. As the operator scrolls through the list, each state is selected
automatically.
To let the operator confirm the selection of a particular state before the state’s value is
written to the network device, include an Enter key with the control list selector.
Using keys to scroll the list
Control list selectors work with:
Key objects. These are graphic objects that duplicate the functions of keyboard keys.
Use them with touch-screen terminals.
The arrow keys and Enter key on a terminal’s keypad.
The arrow keys and Enter key on a keyboard.
If you don’t know the name of the recipe file, just click in the recipe object, and then press
Enter.
