  • Events—Displays the Events view for any systems located within My Systems on the system tree.
  • Probe Location—Displays the Probe Location dialog box for a system, process, or variable. You can enter the location of objects that appear in the system tree, as well as those that do not.

  • Refresh—Updates the contents of the system tree, Watch List views, and Alarm List views.
