Text Li b ra r y
19 TextLibrary
With the text library function, text tables can be created, where values are linked
to texts. The text library function can be used for presentation of each sequence
step in sequence control. Another possible applica tion is to present error codes,
where an analog signal generates error codes connected to texts in a text library.
The function can also be used to give analog values specific values, depending on
the selected texts.
The text library function is activated by selecting it from the Insert ribbon tab.
Texts and groups can be added from the Add button.
It is also possible to add start and end values for each message, that makes the text
in the connected object change depending on the value of the tag.
