Attaching Device User Source to a Device Design

1. Go to the device design where you want to attach the device function. In this example, Edit Horse.
2. Do one of the following depending on the part of the device design where you want to attach the device user source.
   • For device-level, press F3.
   • For screen-/report-level, press F17.
   • For format-level, position the cursor on the selected format and press F5.
   • For entry-level, position the cursor on the selected entry and press Enter.

   Press F11 on the panel that appears to access the Attach Device Functions panel. In this example, we chose format level.

   

   Note: A device user source function was previously attached to this format.

   Press F9 to display the Attach Device Function window and attach the device user function just created.

   

   Specify the device user function just created and press Enter.

   

   The Attached Device Functions panel reappears showing both attached device user functions.

   

   From this panel you can:

   • Use the E option to edit device user source
   • Use the D option to detach device user source
   • Use the + and – options to temporarily disable the selected device user source

   The sequence numbers specify the order in which the device user functions are attached to the device design. Sequence numbers are automatically assigned and can be changed. However, they must be unique for a level. The subfile is sorted by sequence number when the display is reloaded.

   Sequence numbers:

   • Range from 0.01 to 999.99
   • Are incremented by 1.00 when automatically assigned
3. Press F3 to exit. The attached device user source is automatically applied to the subfile record of the Edit Horse device design whenever it is regenerated.
