Recipe Management
13 RecipeManagement
Recipes make it possible for a set of tags to be saved in the operator panel to
be downloaded at later time. The operator can download a saved recipe to
the controller, which will start working with the new values. Recipe libraries
consisting of recipes with different sets of parameters can be created, allowing
reuse of large sets of parameters.
Recipes can be created during the design of the project or from the operator panel.
Recipe data is stored in the operator panel database. Recipe handling functions
such as loading, storing, copying and deleting recipes are handled with actions.
