error or verifications error has occurred, devices may appear in the list as
“unknown devices” (?). In this event, perform the “Read Device Parameters”
operation on the unknown device.
Operations in the Device List Window
The following operations can be performed from the device list display area.
If you double-click on a device, the device parameter editing window will be dis-
played for that device.
Multiple devices can be selected at once by using the Control Key (add selec-
tion) or the Shift Key (range specification).
If you click on the right mouse button over the selected device, a menu will be
displayed with the menu commands that can be used.
The width of the columns displayed in the device list (node address, vendor,
device type, and product code) can be changed by holding the left button of the
mouse on a boundary line between two columns and moving the mouse.
(The width of the node address column can’t be changed.)
If you double-click on the boundary line at the beginning of a column, the width of
the column will be adjusted automatically so that the contents of that column will
be entirely displayed.
