This object has several notable features:

• It can represent an attribute or property.

• It may act as a container or folder.

• It can serve as a functional carrier, such as launching a specific application or performing a task.

Object as an Attribute Carrier

Objects can carry both properties and functionality. When you select an object, you can perform various actions, such as editing it or adjusting its settings.

• Use the menu command Edit > Open Object to modify the object.

• Choose Edit > Object Properties to access a dialog and set specific options for the object.

Folders are also used to store and manage attributes.

Object as a Folder

A folder (or directory) can contain other folders or objects. When opened, it displays its contents.

Object as a Functional Carrier

Opening an object typically brings up a window where you can edit or interact with it.

In general, an object is either a folder or a functional carrier. However, there are exceptions. For example, stations can function as both folders (for programmable modules) and functional carriers (for hardware configuration).

• Double-clicking a station displays its contents, including programmable modules and station configuration (acting as a folder).

• Using Edit > Open Object on a station allows you to configure it by assigning parameters (acting as a functional carrier). This action is similar to double-clicking the "Hardware" object.
