The left pane provides a means of moving between TESLA Control Panel
functions or selecting items within a function (e.g. channels from a record).
TESLA Control Panel functions—Records, Trend, Events, Metering, Utilities
and Configuration are activated by a double-click.
You can optimize the screen space between the tree and the working area to
create a larger working area. Some screens have a
Hide Tree button to maxi-
mize the working area.

area of each section of the TESLA Control Panel.
