Event List Configuration

Use this window to create and maintain event list configurations that hold your filter and view definitions for the monitor boxes that appear within the Event List monitor box window. You can specify how many monitor box columns to use on the Event List monitor box window, specify the filters and views to include in the configuration, and specify the order in which filters and views should appear in event list pop-up menus.

Complete this window as follows:
Name
If you are creating a new event list configuration, type a unique name for the event list configuration.
Columns
Use the slider box to specify the number of monitor box columns that are allowed in the Event List monitor box window.
Filters/Views
Click this button to switch between the filters and views that are part of this event list configuration. The filters or views appear in the list below this button.
Note: The order in which filters and views appear in the Event List Configuration window determines the order in which the event list pop-up menus and drop-down lists display the filter and view lists. You can use the Top, Up, Down, and Bottom buttons to change this order.
New
To create a new filter or view, click this button to open the Filter Builder or View Builder.
Attention: While within the Filter Builder or View Builder, if you specify a filter or view name that already exists in the event list configuration, the existing filter or view is replaced.
Edit
To edit a filter or view, select the relevant filter or view from the adjacent list, and then click this button to open the Filter Builder or View Builder for the selected filter or view. If you change the name of the filter or view to a name that does not exist in the event list configuration, a new filter or view is created. If you change the name to one that already exists, the new filter or view replaces the existing filter or view in the event list configuration.
Load
To load an existing filter or view into the event list configuration, click this button. From the Filter Load window, navigate to the location where the filter or view is stored, select it, and then click OK. The filter or view is added to the list in the Event List Configuration window.
Tip: Filters have a .elf extension. Views have a .elv extension.
Delete
To delete a filter or view from the event list configuration, select the relevant filter or view from the adjacent list, and then click this button to delete the selected filter or view. You are not prompted to confirm the deletion, so ensure that you have selected the appropriate filter or view before clicking Delete.
