The NetDoc Environment
save it as an Excel file.
The
Print Details
button enables you to print details of an individual
record (i.e., not everything in the list) as an HTML-formatted report
in your Internet browser.
The
Search
button opens another window containing the records
currently in the List View table, where you can enter a search string
and initiate a search of the records in the table.
The
Previous
and
Next
buttons allow the user to navigate between
pages of spreadsheet views.
This section also serves as a counter for the number of items
viewable within a selected area.
Detail View
When a List View category is selected, the
Detail View
in the lower half of the window displays
details of the selected record from the List View table. You can change to a different record by
selecting a different row in the spreadsheet, either by scrolling down through the records using
the arrow keys or clicking on a record with your mouse pointer. The
Detail View
display is
linked to the selection chosen in the List View.
For example
: If Termination Hardware is selected, the Detail View shows tabs Termination HW
Info and Port/Pos. Details. The tabs shown in the Detail area will change according to the
category selected in the drop down field, and sometimes will even change in the same category
but with different types. This will occur throughout the application as the tabs are associated and
used for each category and for the different types of items in those categories.
When an item in the List View area is selected, the
Info
tab in Detail View always gives detailed
attributes of the selected record. The remaining Detail View tabs usually show information about
how that record is connected to other cabling elements.
For example
: When selecting a record on the Horizontal Links (HL) drop-down list in the List
View, the Detail View tabs have specific data about the horizontal link:
The
Hardware Sequence
tab shows the hardware sequence for the selected cable.
The
Connected Backbone
tab lists backbone cables connected to the HL and permits the
user to connect backbone cables to that horizontal link.
The
Pathways Used
tab does the same for Pathways containing HLs.
The
Notes and Attachments
tab shows all associated notes to the selected cable and all
attached items.
If the horizontal link is a voice link, an extra tab exists called
Key Sheet
that contains
data input by the user about the phone connection.
