Introduction

This section covers the concept of Children within the Configuration Tree, and the purpose of grouping entities as Children in certain functions.

Overview

Children are the entities with the Configuration Tree folders, and sub-folders. A child is essentially an individual sub-section of the Configuration Tree. It may be desirable to quickly configure an entire group of entities at once, i.e. disable all Areas at once. For this purpose, there are the Children functions: Enable and Show.

Toggling Enable or Disable Children changes whether all entity children are enabled (active; switched 'on') or disabled (inactive; switched 'off') . For example:

Show

Toggling Show or Don't Show Children changes whether all entity children are visible or hidden on the PPI Display. For example:

Toggle the Show Children slider from the 'eye' graphic 👁 to the 'anti-eye' graphic 👁 .
All entities within that entity folder will now be invisible.
