Object Properties
Every object in Building Operation has a number of different properties. Properties can be of two different types: read only and read/write. Read only properties are dimmed and cannot be changed. Read/write properties can be changed.
There are three ways to access the properties of a selected object in WorkStation:
Properties tab
Properties Dialog box
Properties grid
All three methods displays the same properties.
The Properties tab for a trend log.
The properties are sorted under different tabs in the properties tab/dialog/grid. The number of tabs depends on the object. Some object have a lot of properties and tabs, others have only one tab with only a few properties.

A common tab for all objects is the Basic properties tab that contains general properties as type, name and description.
