8.5.1 TOOLBAR
All fields above the tabs on the DUT Definition Editor are considered part of the toolbar.
The toolbar not only identifies which Definition is active, but also provides tools to create,
delete, save, restore, identify and select DUT Definitions. Table 15 identifies the toolbar
features and their functions.

FEATURE DESCRIPTION
DUT record label
(required text entry
field)
This field is analogous to a file name. The text entered should make the DUT easily
distinguishable from other DUTs. Up to 40 characters can be entered in the label.
In some cases it may be useful to set up a single DUT more than one time, for example
if the DUT supports multiple gases. In this case, a proper use of this field would be to
include the
mention of the calibration or process gas as part of the record label.
Do not use the following characters in the DUT record label: \,/, :, *, ?, “, <,>, |, a comma
or tab character. These characters will cause problems when importing the Data File or
creating the Data File directory based on the data directory naming convention
selected using the [Tools], [Options], [Data File] tab (see Section 11.8).
Viewing DUT
(label)
Identifies the current relative sort position of the DUT in the Editor. As the sort order
changes, this field also changes (see Section 8.4). The notation is “Current DUT/Total
number of DUTs”.
Editing DUT
(label)
Identifies the sort identification of a DUT that is being edited. This field does not display
unless a DUT is being edited. As the sort order changes, this field also changes (see
Section 8.4).
Save
(toolbar button)
Saves changes to an edited DUT Definition. This button is not active when no edits
have been made. Any DUT conflicts result in error messages when saving. These
conflicts must be resolved before saving can be completed.
New
(toolbar button)
Creates a new DUT Definition with default information (see Section 8.2).
Copy
(toolbar button)
Copies the contents of the current DUT Definition to a new DUT Definition. The
<Record Label> of the copied DUT includes the text “Copy”. This is the only difference
between the original DUT Definition and the copy. Make sure the new DUT is properly
edited before saving.
Restore
(toolbar button)
Restores a DUT Definition that is being edited to the last saved state. Use this feature
to abandon edits made to a DUT before saving. If a new DUT was created using the
<New> option, the restore button is nonfunctional.
