Info

Info: There are Key Values boxes (1) for many parameters. When this box is checked, the parameter is ignored. This means - the system goes to line one. If line one is checked, it is ignored. The system goes to line two. If line two is checked, it is ignored, etc. If the line is not checked, the system saves selected parameters. They are gatekeepers. Then, the system reaches the bottom (meets all criteria of the key values); at the bottom, there can be Return Values (2) (displayed without Key Values boxes). They analyze the values and can create alerts to flag.
