When you navigate to a specific menu in the top pane, FDC displays the items under that menu in the
bottom pane. If the some of the items under the menu are variables (or parameters) then FDC also fetches
their corresponding values from the device and updates them. Some of these variables are dynamic in
nature which means their value changes without any input from the user. In such cases, FDC
synchronizes and refreshes the values on periodic basis when such dynamic variables are on display.
