Virtual Input Properties
|
|
After selecting to Add, Edit, Duplicate or Paste an Indicator - the Properties section will load. There are 3 different types of Virtual Inputs
| Not Used
|
| If a Virtual Input is no longer being used, but you do not want to delete it completely, select the Not Used option. This will save the setup of the input and make it inactive - if you need to reactivate the input at a later date you would just have to change the Type instead of having to create it from the beginning.
