Change

To use the Change command, select Change on the Modify/Delete section dropdown:

After clicking Change, the user will be prompted to Select a Device to Change-any Coax device can be changed to any other device of the same type. This command cannot be used to change a device to a different device type. After selecting the device to be changed, the user will be prompted to select another device of the same type from the equipment menu to be inserted. The original device is deleted, and the new device is placed and recalc is performed to the next active.

If a Coax tap is selected, the following Tap Levels status window appears:

The drop-down arrows in the Series and Model fields will allow the user to manually select another tap series or another tap model; the Input, Output, and Ports levels will automatically change to show the results of the new tap. If using the existing Series, the designer can also use the scroll arrows to the far right, to increment or decrease the tap values (in the same series), one tap value at a time-with the levels in the status window reflecting the new tap values as they are selected.

Note: Any tap changed manually, will automatically have its drop code reset to '99', so the changed tap will not be changed on recalc.
