To identify which buttons in the CODA Form are members of an “Exclusive Link Cluster”, click and
hold on an Event button� If that button is a member of an “Exclusive Link Cluster” it will be backlit
by a rose colored hue and every other Event button which is a member of that cluster grouping
will also be backlit�
A button can only be assigned to one (1) Exclusive Link Cluster�
A further function restricted to members of an Exclusive Link Cluster is the ability to pass the last
Event code as a Tag ie� if an Event button is activated while another member of the Exclusive Link
Cluster is still active, the new Event will be activated and marked with the last Event as a Tag and
the last Event will be deactivated
To enable this function, select the “Pass Last Code as Tag” box for the Exclusive Link Cluster�
d� Putting the Links Together
In the example we have been using to illustrate creating components of our CODA Form, the
rules of the activity are that only 1 piece of fruit may be selected at a time; if the piece of fruit is
unripe it must be replaced on the conveyor belt and another piece of fruit selected; if it is over
ripe it must be discarded and another piece of fruit selected�
In our example now illustrated below we have created 12 links to substantially automate the
rules process described above and we show you the “on activation” links from the Tag button
“Replaced”�
The 3 Event buttons should be placed in an Exclusive Link Cluster because only one of them can
be active at any point in time�
An “On-activation Link” (with a green arrow) has been created from each of the “Unripe” Popup
Tag buttons to the “Replaced” Tag button� An “on activation Link” has also been created from the
“Over Ripe” Popup Tag buttons to the “Discarded” Tag button� 6 Links in total�
