11- Channels and parameters
11�2 Parameters
A parameter stores values that can only be changed by the user. The WMPro has 100 parameters,
which you can use without restriction. When you congure a controller, some parameters are cre-
ated automatically, e.g. Setvalue, I-time, etc. Parameters can be added to a conguration page and/
or an overview image where settings can be changed. The parameter list is more or less the same as
the channel list, except that you only need to enter the name, value, unit and the number of decimal
places.
To make changes to the parameter list, you need to be logged in as "cong". Open the parameter list
by clicking Settings/Advanced/Parameters.
The next page is a list of all the parameters. An unoccupied parameter has the name Data followed
by a number, e.g. Data 9.
Enter the name, value, unit and the number of decimal places you want your parameters to use.
11�2�1 Saving parameters
As with the channel list, there is a oating toolbar in the top right. The
toolbar indicates how many parameters have been changed, and there is a
Save button.
Important: You can make changes to other parameters without hav-
ing to save them every time, but you must remember to save the set-
tings before leaving the page or all your changes will be lost�
11�2�2 Deleting parameters
You cannot delete parameters if they are used in scripts. If the parameter can be deleted, you will
see a delete eld containing a checkbox on the right of the parameter eld. To delete the parameter,
check the box and click Save. Take care when deleting channels. When you delete a parameter it
reverts to its original name, e.g. Data 9.
