Folders
7.1 General
The contents of the various folders depend on which Exigo model the program has been configured
for.
Therefore, the contents will not be described in detail here.
Items in a folder that somehow belong together are grouped. Group names are displayed in bold. The
groups are normally shown expanded, that is that all the items in the group are displayed, headed by
the group name. A group can be compressed to show only the group name by clicking on the box with
a - (minus) to the left of the group name. For a compressed group, the box will contain a +. Click on
it to expand the group.
Setting values
Many of the folders contain settable values. If you pass the cursor over such a value a text box (tool
tip) will be displayed showing the permitted value interval.
If you have a controller connected you must download a value to the controller for it to become active.
Downloading can be done in several ways:
Right-click on any single item and choose
Load parameters
.
This will download only that single
parameter.
Right-click on a group name and choose
Load parameters
.
This will download all parameters in the
chosen group.
Click on the
Load all parameters
button on the toolbar.
Click on
Tools
on the Menu bar and choose
Load all parameters
.
These last two methods will, as the name implies, download all parameters to the controller.
You can also synchronize parameters following the same rules as above but choose
Synchronize
parameters
.
A useful tool to compare the settings in the controller with the settings in Exigo tool.
It is also possible to reset parameters to default values by right-clicking and choosing
Reset
parameters to default values
.
