Menus
The WheatNet‑IP Scheduler software is operated using buttons and menus. This section
serves to bring together the descriptions of the various menu items that have been described
throughout the manual. Some items in the main menu depend on which tab is being viewed
and what items on that tab are highlighted. The small menu on the log form is described
at the very end of this section.
File
The File
menu contains a few items that are necessary for basic program configuration
and operation. The available items are:
Open...
This item allows you to open a previously saved set of events for editing and/
or scheduling.
Save... This item allows you to save the current set of events for later use.
Set IP Address... This item allows you to specify the Blade that you expect to connect
to for obtaining signals and as the avenue by which your fired Connect, Disconnect,
and Salvo events will control the system. You will need to restart the program after
changing this setting.
Define Devices This item allows you to specify the device or devices that you expect
to connect to for firing ACI events. You will need to restart the program after changing
any device settings.
Request Config
This item allows you to fetch the signals known to the Blade to which
you are connected. The program’s existing signal set is deleted first, so you may want
to save a signal set before fetching a new one.
Print...
When selected while viewing the Event Manager tab, this item allows you to
print the contents of the event list. When selected while viewing the Scheduled Events
tab, this item allows you to print a snapshot of the current schedule list. Events that
have already fired will not appear on the printout.
Exit This item allows you to close the Scheduler software.
Edit
The Edit
menu contains a couple of items that can be useful in creating new events
that are similar to existing events. This menu is only usable on the Event Manager tab.
The available items are:
Copy This item will copy the
Start Time
and
Repeat Interval
of the currently highlighted
event to the clipboard, with a
Name
like “Copy of This Event”, assuming the
Name of
the event copied is “This Event”.
Paste
This item will paste the contents of the clipboard into the next available line on
the event list.
Events
The
Events menu is only visible when viewing the Event Manager tab. It contains items
useful in managing the creation and editing of events. The available items are:
New This item calls up the
Event Properties dialog with the first available undefined
event showing.
