Abstract
For a quick connect, a user may receive a list of available groups, select a particular group, and provide site number and controller number for a station/platform to be identified and connected. For a quick disconnect, user may have a list of all active stations/platforms from which to select for disconnect, including an option to disconnect all stations/platforms at once. A style configurator user interface may be invoked, which can populate a window with colors selected for menu bar, tool bar, and like components. A menu option may be provided in the tool bar where user can change the baseline from an old station configuration to a new station configuration. Thus, when user creates a new site controller, the configuration file may reflect control strategies and configuration updates added before as the new baseline.
