Specifications

With custom views, you can tailor the appearance of your site and channel data in the Lynx interface. The
Custom View Editor lets you place metering and status indicators and command controls exactly where you want
them, and you can insert additional text and graphics anywhere on the screen. For quick assessment of multiple
locations, one custom view can contain channel indicators for more than one site and unit. You can also create
multiple tiers of custom views for a detailed drill-down approach to site management (see page 84). A complete
package of U.S. maps is included to make this easier.
In addition, a chart utility gives you the ability to view readings from one more more channels on a historical
graph, with a user-defined time interval (see page 69).
OPENING A CUSTOM VIEW
The
VViieeww LLiisstt
contains a list of your custom views, sorted by category. When you create a new
view, you will be able to create new category names. To open the View List, select
View List from
the View menu.
Click on the name of the view to see it displayed in the Lynx main window. If your custom views
are arranged in more than one category, click the category name in the View List to display all
the custom views for that category.
CREATING & EDITING CUSTOM VIEWS
The
CCuussttoomm VViieeww EEddiittoorr
is where you create and edit all of your custom views. To create a new custom view, click
New Custom View in the File menu. To edit an existing view, right-click the name of the view you want to edit and
select
Edit View. This will open the Custom View Editor.
Customizing the Standard View
You do not have to start from scratch to customize the display of your site information. It is possible to open the
default view template in the Custom View Editor, and then use the tools in the Custom View Editor to change the
standard view. To do this, click
New Standard View in the main application File Menu.
