Work with the Commands tab

Use the RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) Composer to review the commands associated with a remote and to enter Model Commands. For information on how to generate a list of remotes, refer to Create a simulation configuration file.

To review commands

1. From the Available pane, select the icon for each remote you wish to include.

   The remotes move from the Available pane to the Selected pane.

   

2. Select the Commands tab.

   The Commands view appears.

   

3. Optional: In the Filter, enter your desired parameters to narrow the list.

   The list of digital commands automatically updates.

4. Optional: To sort the columns by ascending or descending order, select the column to change the order.

   Note: The default for the column order is set to ascending.

5. In the Model Command column, double-click the desired line, and enter a command. The Model Command is the key used to issue a command to the SPS simulation.

   Note: The gray Model Command indicate derivation by implicit naming rules. Any manual entry will override an implicit naming rule and mark the Model Command as explicit (indicated by black font). For more information, refer to the Tools Developer documentation.

   • To revert changes while editing a Model Command, press Esc.

   • To commit the change and mark the Model Command as explicit, press Enter or move to another cell.

6. To save, hover over the icon, and select the icon.
