2. Using the Interface
Shortcuts
list of additional commands or a dialog box appears. Select the command or enter information in
the dialog box as directed. For more information on using each menu bar option, see the related
task in this User’s Guide.
There are 4 menus:
Filters
Several pages have drop-down lists located at the top of the window, called “filters.” These filters
enable you to reduce the number of items listed to only those matching characters entered in the fil-
ter fields. For example, a Name filter returns only items whose name matches the characters
entered in the filter field.
Shortcuts
NV9000-SE has several shortcut commands. Shortcuts allow you to perform a task without having
to select a menu from the menu bar and then a menu option. Some of these shortcut commands are
listed on the menus while others are performed anywhere in the interface by using keyboard
strokes.
All shortcuts are performed using keys on your keyboard. ‘Ctrl’ represents the Control key, ‘Shift’
the Shift key, ‘S’ the S key, and so on. A plus sign—’+’—between keys indicates that you press the
first key, and while keeping it depressed, press the second key. You can use the ‘Shift’ key to select
a contiguous items or use the ‘Ctrl’ key to select non-contiguous items in a list.
Double-click Option
To select and open any item in any page listed in the ‘Configuration’ pane, simply double-click on
it. A page opens displaying details for that item.
File Menu
Instead of selecting the ‘File’ menu from the menu bar and then a menu option, you can use the fol-
lowing keyboard strokes:
• ‘Ctrl’ + ‘N’ — Creates a new configuration.
• ‘Ctrl’ + ‘O’ — Opens a new configuration.
• ‘Ctrl’ + ‘S — Saves the current configuration.
File Provides commands for creating new configurations, opening existing configurations,
saving a configuration with a new name, importing and exporting configurations to zip
files, and exiting. (See
Control Panels on page 231.)
System Opens the ‘Add Control System’ dialog box. See Managing System Parameters on
page 48.
Window Closes active or inactive windows in the work area.
Help Lists the software revision number and launches the online Help system.
