12.6.4 Catalogs
Catalogs exist for certain data fields. Some of the catalogs are stored as factory settings that cannot be changed. These are catalogs
that the Profitest test device requires to analyze its measured values. Other catalogs can be freely edited. For instance, these catalogs
are used to auto-complete field entries, but can also be transferred to the Profitest as inventory tools (e.g. lead type).
The catalog view consists of two fields. The left-hand field shows a hierarchical view of input fields in a tree structure. The input field
opens on the right-hand side when the input fields are selected. A message is shown in each case in the top-right section, indicating
whether the matching values can be changed. If so, the command is used to make additional entries.
There are five types of catalog entry:
Alphanumerical input fields – individual input
Input fields in which any sequence of numerals and characters can be entered. Each complete entry is then added to the matching cat-
alog. These catalogs are used for auto-complete.
Numerical input fields with or without unit – individual input
Input fields in which numerical values can be added within defined limits. Set units can also be selected from a list. Values are entered
by selecting the pen symbol .
These catalogs are used for auto-complete.
