Expanding the board entry to display channels, or using the 'View by Channel'
option will display one row for each channel. Each channel row shows seven
configuration settings for the channel along with a "More" button for displaying
all options for the selected channel on one page. To see and edit all settings in a
non-live environment for a single channel, you can use the "more" button.
However, it is often more convenient to modify channels settings directly on this
page where they take effect immediately and you can see the values for multiple
settings at once. However, there is only space to display seven options on this
page and there are much more than seven available options. the seven fields
default to the most commonly configured options, but you can click on the
header above the table showing the channels to modify what field shows in that
column. When you click the header, the column description will become a
dropdown box which can then be modified. This way you can display and your
choice of column headers.
Editing values inline
To edit a value, simply click the cell you want to edit, for example, Channel 12's
channel name. The cell will change to an edit control and when you click out of
the cell or hit return, the value you changed will take effect immediately. Most
options are either edit boxes where you can type your value, such as a Channel
name, or a dropdown list where you select an available value from the list, for
example Detect Type. A few options are represented as checkboxes or sliders
where appropriate.
The down arrow key will submit the changes for the current cell being edited
and select the cell below for edit.
The escape key will cancel an edit and set the cell back to the original value
If you want to change a channel value for all channels in a board at once, a
shortcut is provided. Simply click on the header of the column you wish to
change, and scroll down to and select 'Set All'. The column header itself will
change to an edit control and changes made there will take effect for all
channels in the board, for example to change the VOX Threshold of all channels
on an analog board to the same value at once. In addition, you can select "Insert
Column" to insert an additional column into the table.
Doing a “set all” on certain fields trigger special actions other than setting all of
the channels to the value specified.

name

or “dynamic”
