Menu Commands

The xView menu bar holds seven top-level menus, from left to right:

Menu	Purpose
File	Create, open, save and print windows; configure communications and devices
Edit	Copy an image of the current window to the clipboard
View	Choose the display format and control the graph axes
Controls	Commands affecting every device in the system; always password protected
Options	Program settings, data logging, database, colours and TOU
Window	Arrange the windows on screen and save a layout
Help	Copyright, program version and system information

How commands are written in this manual

Commands are written from the top-level menu down to the sub-menu — for example File → New means the New item within the File menu.

Note

Whether a given command is available depends on the type of window currently in use (the active window) and on the password level currently logged on.
