Missing scaling box for "all" outputs

$

I setup MAX and scaled all my outputs and everything has been working fine for months.  Yesterday I added another fieldpoint module, set it up, and the program was running normally.  I stopped the program, changed my sample, started the program again...and suddenly my program was returning very weird (non-physical) data.  I traced it back to improper scaling (MAX was reporting correct raw values), but when I tried to fix the problem, I no longer have access to the settings box I used to do the initial scaling!  (see attached image)

 

I was able to workaround this problem by polling each channel individually (with a loss in latency now from polling the serial module an extra 5 times...) but I'm really curious as to how/why this occurred.  Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Randall
