Section 5 — The Maestro Configuration Editor
Configuration Editor Guidelines
The following paragraphs are guidelines that can be used for each step as
needed and where appropriate.
Automatic Table Entry
This function is designed to expedite the data entry process and eliminate
errors due to differences in spelling and entry of inappropriate data.
In cases where a device must be entered on more than one table, the Con-
figuration editor will automatically copy (or offer as a selectable item) the
data entered on the “initial entry” table to all “secondary” tables. Entering
information in the same order as the tables appear on the Select Panel (left
side of the screen) will therefore eliminate most of the repeat entries. For
example, when the name of a Frame Processor is entered on the Network
Description table, the same name will be available as a selection on the
Channel Setup table.
Note You must enter data on the primary table before entering data on the sec-
ondary tables. For example, you must enter a new Processor on the Network
Description table before it will be available for selection in other tables.
When certain items are modified, the editor will automatically modify,
when appropriate, the corresponding selections on other tables. For
example, if the name of an input is changed on the Input table, the new
name will be available as a selection on the Quick Pick table.
Find Text
Each table includes a Find Text button, which can be used to search for a text
string in the selected table.
