Taking the lags of independent variables

Hello,

If I write, in the window of equation specification in Eviews, Rate(-3) which is my regressor, does it mean that it takes the sum of lags of rate variable until the third lag , please ? Or do I need to write rate rate(-1) rate(-2) rate(-3) to consider the sum of lagged regressor ?

Thanks in advance.

rate(-3) means the third lag. Nothing to do with the sum.
