Route
From the Route area of the folder you can
perform the following route management
functions:
•
Save - save a newly created route, or
save changes to the route under the
same name, the previous version of the
route is overwritten and the revised
date for the route changes accordingly
as indicated in the list of available
routes (if displayed).
•
No Errors/Errors - the system checks
the validity of the loaded route, if there
are no errors in the route the button
displays
No Errors in the system
background colour. If the route's
attributes do contain errors the route
cannot be validated and the button changes to display
Errors with
a yellow background.
A route can be saved even if it does contain errors. However the
route must have no errors before it can be loaded for monitoring.
•
Save As - used when either creating a new route, or to rename an
existing route. The route name and current date are added to the
Load Route list.
•
Open - load a previously saved route for editing.
•
Clear/New - clear an existing route from the screen prompting the
user to save an unsaved route if necessary.
•
Delete - delete a route from the list of previously saved routes.
