2.2.2 The individual definition function

The individual definition function creates manager host definition information for each individual unit. It can be used to define and export a unit without regard to the unit's layer structure.

The individual definition function is useful for adding or re-creating unit definitions below multiple units to be defined, but unlike the batch definition function, it is not limited to the units below a certain unit to be defined.

The following figure shows export of definition information, using individual definition.

Figure 2‒4: Export with individual definition

In individual definition, any specified position information will be disregarded. When export is performed, the icons will be displayed in random positions within JP1/AJS3 - View.

If a unit of the same name already exists at the export destination, it will be overwritten. In this case, its display position in JP1/AJS3 - View will not change, but the pre-export definition information for lower units will be deleted. When you are performing individual definition for the first time for lower units, the definition information for those units will be replaced. In this case, position information for the lower units will not be enabled.

The following figure shows the definition information management template for using the individual definition function.

Figure 2‒5: The definition information management template during individual definition

If you use the individual export function when the unit specified for Previous in the unit common definition information already exists on JP1/AJS, the unit common definition information can be exported with the previous unit specified. If you use the individual export function when the unit specified for Previous does not exist on JP1/AJS, an error occurs.
