Abstract: A method to selectively present a list of parameter options on a front end device can be used to configure a target device. It comprises the steps of, selecting a target device to be configured, displaying a list of configurable parameters, selecting a parameter to configure, querying the target device for a set of valid parameter options, returning a set of valid parameter options from the target device to the front end device based on the current state of the target device, and displaying the list of valid parameter options on the front end device. An HVAC system capable of performing the method, selectively presents a list of parameter options used to configure an HVAC system component. The front end device presents a list of valid parameter options to a user based on the current state of the target device.
