Customizing the Browser:

You can hide rows and columns in the browser to make it easier to view just the data you want to
monitor and control. For example, you may be viewing data from devices in a single subsystem;
therefore, you would hide the subsystem column. In another example, you may want to monitor and
control only a few of the network variables listed in the browser; therefore, you would hide the rows of
all the other network variables that you do not want to monitor and control.
