Figure 106: Loads Look-up Table

 

 

In the dialog above, the stations given in the look-up table are in the upper grid whilst the lower grid contains derived components consisting of one or more of the stations given in the look-up table and listed in the upper grid.

 

AddComponent - creates a new derived component consisting of the stations checked in the upper grid. Once created, the name can be edited by clicking on that field.

Edit - this checks the stations in the currently selected component.

Commit - this commits the currently selected stations to the currently selected derived component.

Remove - removes a component.

Load Defaults - adds a set of default components which can then be edited, added to or removed.

 

The components defined in this tab will show up in the periodic costs tab once the dialog has been closed with the OK button and reopened.
