Creating and Applying a Conversation
The
Add Conversation to Template
area of the
Filter Design
window provides a con-
venient way to add address byte patterns to a filter. The area consists of a protocol
selection, frame type selection, two station addresses, a direction indicator, and an
enable/disable check box. Refer to the table below for field definitions that com-
prise a conversation.
Protocol and Frame Type
The protocol and the frame type are selected from pull-down boxes. Surveyor auto-

Station Addresses
Station addresses can be entered directly or by clicking on the
Name
button
after either
Station Address
field. Clicking on either button brings up the current
name table to select an address. The
Name Table
window shows all name and
address associations, including the protocol and the frame type. The name and
address associations displayed are those in the currently active name table. Double-
clicking on a name table entry will load that name into the currently-selected
Station
Address
field.
