The Object Handler provides the Options menu to invoke functions and/or activate (deactivate) modes and options. Note that the items on the Options menu do not apply to all Object Handler functions, and, therefore, may not be available on all Options menus. Additionally, the availability of items depends on the processing mode used (advanced user or wizards) and the status of function processing.
This section covers the following topics:
The Settings option invokes the Settings window where you can specify option settings for the unload, load or scan function and parameter settings for the unload or load function. For further information, see the section Settings.
This option is available in the Options menu in the Welcome to the Natural Object Handler window.
The Profile option invokes the SYSOBJH - Profile window where you can define an individual profile for your Object Handler utility. See also the section Profile Settings.
This option is available in the Options menu in the Welcome to the Natural Object Handler window.
The Advanced User option activates function processing in advanced-user mode as described in Advanced User in the section Functions.
