11.5.2 Configuration Using the Generic Configuration Editor
The Generic Configuration Editor is used to edit a router control module in a logical tree
structure format, see Fig 50. It can be used to edit or view the controller configuration. The
Generic Configuration Editor is useful for grabbing DCCP elements for screen design.
To configure the router control module using the Generic Configuration Editor:
1. Click on the Generic tab from the Controller Configuration screen shown on page 66
in Fig 47.
2. Click on the Edit Controller... button to display the Generic Configuration Editor,
Fig 50.
The controller’s configuration parameters display in a tree.
• Click on a symbol to expand the node below it.
• Click on a symbol to collapse the node.
The nodes depend on the type of device.

Important:
Care should be taken when using the Generic Configuration Editor. It is very easy to
change the configuration so that the router control module no longer functions correctly,
and in a way that is difficult to fault-find. For example, changing the baud rate can stop the
controller from communicating correctly, if a device has not had the same change in baud
rate.
Important:
Removing an item from the middle of an array can ‘break’ the controller and links to soft
panels.
