Task Sequence editor

The Task Sequence editor allows you to edit a task sequence that you can run in the network and control.

The Task Sequence editor is displayed when you open a Task Sequence object from the Task Sequence Group in the explorer tree.

You can insert a task by clicking any of the Insert Task option, or by dragging a supported object from the explorer tree.

This editor allows you to create a sequence of updates to the network/control, Stored Queries, Ruby Scripts, Inference objects, Reconnect float valves, etc.. These tasks can be edited, moved up or down, and deleted.

Clicking the Run all tasks or Run selected tasks button will run the task in sequence to the network/control. Alternatively, dragging the Task Sequence object onto a network will apply the tasks in sequence to the network/control.

After running the task sequence, an amalgamated log from each step is shown.
