If this option is not checked, the window is full screen and can not be adjusted or moved. This option is only taken into account when the application is launched, regarding the modification of the type of window displayed.

Lock ALT and CTRL/ESC keys​

This option validates the lock of Windows task switch commands (ALT / TAB, CTRL / ESC). This option prohibits any user from switching to another Windows application.

When the resolution is decreased (1/4 h -> 1/2 h -> 1 hour), a confirmation message is displayed to warn the operator that the schedule may be changed (extension of the unaligned time slots for the new resolution).

Displayed station configuration filter​

Station​

Select the station to be consulted from the drop-down list.

This selection is only allowed if the local station (1st station) is defined as "Central station". Only "ALERT" stations (stations defined with a user having the same name than the station and associated with an "ALERT" communication driver) are available in the list. The "(all)" selection gives access to the data of all stations.

If a station is selected, the name of the selected station will be displayed in the status bar at the bottom of the main window, and only the station's data will be accessible: setup and acquisition data, on-call schedule, alarm table, alarm history and event log.
