Using the user interface screens
The graphical user interface screens contain various combinations of
pull-down menus and dropdown lists, selection buttons, incremental
spin boxes, and text fields by which you can interact with the system.
The following describes how to use these screen features.
Pull-down menus
A pull-down menu or list is indicated by an inverted triangle within the
menu title box or oval, to the right of the menu name.

Types of pull-down menus
You will encounter two types of pull-down menus on the IPS
windows:
•
File pull-down menus.
These menus contain options that are
actually files. When you select an option, the system retrieves
that file. The top line of a file pull-down menu displays the
directory path the system takes to retrieve the file you select.
Examples of this type of pull-down menu include Input and
Output Group Name menus and DFA Profile menus.

Standard pull-down menus
