MICRO PANEL Quick Start Guideline XV-2xx Systems
The first GALILEO Project
To use variables from another controller type or to use variables without using the import function you
have to use the following procedure:
E.g. a byte variable:
Position the mouse cursor on the variable type “Byte” and
press the right mouse button and select “New”. Then enter the
variable name. Thus the variable is generated but marked
blue. The colour blue means that the variable has no address
and thus has no possible communication to as PLC. This is
how you generate a local visualization variable. With a double
click on the variable a property window to the variable will
open.
In the property dialog under
the register “Address” you can
click on the empty field and
enter the address of the PLC.
This address depends on the
type of PLC selected. If you
are communicating to the
internal PLC you must also
enter the name of the symbol
file. (This only applies to
global PLC variables!)
Through a double click
automatically the same name
will be taken as the PLC
variable name as the one
entered in GALILEO.
