Editing Individual Virtual Controller Values
After you click Update in the Modify Devices form, the Variable Edit screen displays. This screen includes two
sections. The lower section includes editable fields. Enter values or select options directly in these fields to make
changes on individual controllers. In the example below, the VC names are changed from Instant-C0:87:54 and
Instant-CF:93:D2 to Store-00001 and Store-00002 respectively.

Bulk Editing of Multiple Virtual Controllers
The upper section of the Variable Edit page includes a drop down menu of variables that can be used to apply
bulk changes to all VCs that you select in the lower section.
Perform the following steps to apply bulk edits.
1. In the edit screen, select the check box beside the virtual controller(s) that will be edited. (See Figure 11.)
2. Select the variable that you want to change from the drop down list in the upper section.
3. Enter or select the new value. In the example below, clock_timezone is changed to Pacific time for both VCs.
4. Click Apply when you are finished making each change. The selected virtual controllers will display the
updated information. Follow these same steps for each variable that you want to edit.
The Apply button remains disabled until a virtual controller is selected (via its check box).
