Editing Configurations
Configurations
Information about inputs/outputs, along with the arrangement of components and how they are
connected, is called a “configuration.” Configurations are created in the Designer window and sent
to the DME unit.
In the Designer window, configurations are designed using various design windows, such as the Area,
Zone, Configuration, and User Module windows. In each window a sheet is displayed, on which
objects can be arranged.
New Configurations
Multiple zones can be created for an area, multiple device groups can be created for a zone, and
multiple configurations can be created for a device group.
Zones can be added via the “Zone Manager” window, device groups can be added via the “Device
Group and Sampling Frequency Settings” window, and configurations can be added via the
“Configuration manager” window. Information about the “Zone Manager” window can be found in the
“Adding, Deleting, and Renaming a Zone” section on page 291, information on the “Device Group and
Sampling Frequency Settings” window can be found in the “Device Group Selection” section on
page 276, and information on the “Configuration Manager” window can be found in the “Adding,
Deleting, and Renaming a Configuration” section on page 295.
Security
Editing in the Designer window can be restricted based on the user security settings. Only users for
whom the [Operation Security]  [Edit] checkbox in the “Security” dialog box has been checked can
display the Designer window and edit configurations.
For information about the “Security” dialog box, see “Security (Creating Users and Making User
Settings)” on page 82.
Edit Mode
There is an “Edit Mode” in the Designer window when offline status. When the Edit Mode is ON,
configurations can be edited. When it is turned OFF, configurations cannot be edited. When online, the
Edit Mode is OFF.
NOTE
SP2060 configurations cannot be edited.
