Advanced view is the surface for LW3 protocol tree with a terminal window. Commands
and specific parameters (which are not available on the graphical user interface of the LDC)
can be run and set.

the Clear button. If the Autoscroll option is ticked, the list is scrolled
automatically when a new line is added.

modify the values or parameters, untick the option. You will be
prompted to confirm your selection.
