Figure 3‒30: Event Acquisition Conditions List window (basic mode)

The following describes the items displayed in the Event Acquisition Conditions List window.

A filter is being applied

The ID and name of the event acquisition filter that is currently being applied are displayed.

Filter list

This area displays a list of event acquisition filters that have been created.

When the user selects and double-clicks an item in the list, the Event Acquisition Settings window opens so that the selected filter can be edited. The user can select only one item.

A maximum of 50 event acquisition filters can be registered in the filter list.

The user can sort the filter list by selection status (Apply column), by filter ID (ID column), or by filter name (Filter name column). Sorting is performed by clicking the corresponding column header. If the user clicks a column header once, the Δ icon is displayed in the column header. If the user clicks the column header again, the icon is displayed. If the user clicks the column header a third time, no icon is displayed. If the Δ icon or the icon is displayed, and the user clicks another column header, the current sorting is canceled and the list is sorted on the other column.

The sort order of the filter list is indicated by an icon displayed in the header of the column on which the list was sorted:

• No icon: The event acquisition filters are sorted in the order they were added to the list.

• Δ: The event acquisition filters are sorted in ascending order.

• : The event acquisition filters are sorted in descending order.

Apply

The event acquisition filter whose radio button in the Apply column is selected is the filter that is currently applied.

ID

The IDs of event acquisition filters are displayed in this column. The user can change the ID of an event acquisition filter by using the Event Acquisition Settings window.

Filter name

The names of event acquisition filters are displayed in this column. The user can change the name of an event acquisition filter by using the Event Acquisition Settings window.

Add

Clicking this button allows the user to add a new event acquisition filter. When this button is clicked, the Event Acquisition Settings window opens, where the user can set a new event acquisition filter. A maximum of 50 event acquisition filters can be created. When 50 event acquisition filters have been registered in the list, the Add button is disabled.

Edit

Clicking this button allows the user to edit the selected event acquisition filter. When the user selects an event acquisition filter and then clicks the Edit button, the Event Acquisition Settings window opens, where the user can edit the settings of the selected filter. This button is available when at least one event acquisition filter is selected in the Filter list area.

Copy

Clicking this button copies the selected event acquisition filter. When the user selects an event acquisition filter and then clicks the Copy button, a new event acquisition filter in which the same conditions as those defined in the selected filter is created and added to the list in the Filter list area.

When a new event acquisition filter is copied, an unused filter ID in the event acquisition filter list is automatically assigned in ascending order.

The new event acquisition filter that is created is assigned the default name Copy original-filter-name, and added to the list. After creating a copy of an event acquisition filter, if the user creates another copy of the same event acquisition filter, a number is added after the string Copy in CopyN original-filter-name format (N is a number). The first number used is 2, which is incremented each time the same event acquisition filter is copied.

When the Copy button is clicked, the new filter that has been created is selected as the filter that is currently applied.

When 50 event acquisition filters have been registered in the list, the Copy button is disabled.

Delete

Clicking this button deletes the selected event acquisition filter.

If this button is clicked when only one event acquisition filter has been selected, a dialog box displays the KAVB0250-I message.

If this button is clicked when multiple event acquisition filters have been selected, a dialog box displays the KAVB1149-Q message.

Clicking the Yes button in this dialog box deletes the selected event acquisition filter from the list in the Filter list area.

Common exclusion-conditions groups

A list of common exclusion-conditions groups is displayed in basic or extended mode.

Double-clicking an item selected in the list displays either the Common Exclusion-Conditions Settings window or the Common Exclusion-Condition Settings (Extended) window. The displayed window can be used to edit the selected item.

The differences between basic mode and extended mode are the number of conditions groups that can be set and the number of columns displayed in the list. For details about how to switch from basic mode to extended mode, see 5.2.4(3) Setting common exclusion-conditions in the JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager Configuration Guide.

Copy

Click this button to copy the selected common exclusion-conditions group in basic mode, common exclusion-conditions group in extended mode, or additional common exclusion-conditions group in extended mode. Note that an exclusion-conditions group created by copying an additional common exclusion-conditions group in extended mode becomes a common exclusion-conditions group in extended mode.

When the user selects a common exclusion-conditions group (or an additional common exclusion-conditions group) and clicks the Copy button, a common exclusion-conditions group that has the same conditions that the selected one is created and is added to the Common exclusion-conditions groups list.

When a new common exclusion-conditions group is copied, an unused ID in the common exclusion-conditions group list is automatically assigned in ascending order.

The new common exclusion-conditions group that is created is assigned the default name Copy original-conditions-group-name. After creating a copy of a common exclusion-conditions group, if the user creates another copy of the same common exclusion-conditions group, a number is added after the string Copy in CopyN original-conditions-group-name (N is a number). The first number used is 2, which is incremented each time the same event acquisition filter is copied.

When the Copy button is clicked, the new common exclusion-conditions group that has been created is selected.

Type

Click this button to change the type of the selected common exclusion-conditions group in extended mode. The type can be changed only from the additional common exclusion-conditions group to the (normal) common exclusion-conditions group.

The type cannot be changed from the (normal) common exclusion-conditions group to the additional common exclusion-conditions group.

When the user clicks this button, a message box asks the user whether to change the type. Clicking the OK button in this message box changes the type of the selected common exclusion-conditions groups (from the additional type to the normal type).

Note that if the type is changed, the ID of the common exclusion-conditions group is changed.

The new ID to be assigned is the largest of the already defined IDs plus 1. If the new ID exceeds the maximum, the smallest available ID is assigned.

If the type is changed from the additional type to the normal type by mistake, the change can be canceled by clicking the Close button in the System Environment Settings window before the Apply button is clicked.
