Viewing, Adding, and Editing Lists, Continued
Managing Points Default custom control programming within the system automatically adds points to system
lists based on their point type, a process known as auto list generation, or autogen. For
example, adding a signal point with the SSIGNAL point type automatically adds the point to
system list L8, Fire Alarm Points Off on Silence.
In some applications, however, you need to turn a system list's autogen property off, so that you
can manually move points into or out of the system list. This is particularly true when editing
WalkTest, Latching Supv Verification, and Elevator Recall groups.
Be aware that when working with the system lists, four icons are used to indicate the status of
the system list.
This symbol represents an auto-generated list with the autogen property turned on. When
autogen is turned on, points cannot be manually moved into or out of the list.
This symbol represents an auto-generated list whose autogen property cannot be altered.
The list is permanently set to autogen on and cannot be edited.
This symbol represents an auto-generated list with the autogen property turned off.
Indicates that the list is not automatically generated.
A system list's autogen property can be turned on and off in one of two places:
• General List Tab. Clicking on the General List tab displays all lists (system and user)
currently defined on the panel. Refer to “Turning Autogen Off and On from the
General List Tab” for specific information on doing this.
• WalkTest, Latching Supv Verification, Elevator Recall Tabs. Each of these tabs
displays a window that allows you to move points into the appropriate lists. Within
each window, you can toggle the autogen property to allow points to be moved into
and out of the lists. Refer to the specific section for information on turning off autogen
for Latching Supv Verification, WalkTest, or elevator recall.
