Links

The row of buttons along the top of this view provide these functions:

  • Point Manager opens the Nrio Point Manager view.
  • Clear Totals resets the accumulated total value for all CounterInputPoints to zero (0), which is equivalent to invoking the Reset command on each point's proxy extension (ProxyExt).
  • Go To Module opens the Go to Module window for navigating to another Nrio module under the controller’s Nrio Network. The system populates this window only when there are two or more Nrio modules on the network.
  • The Nrio Network button (Image) returns up one level to the Niro Network view.
