Block Title or Network Title
To enter a block or network title, position the cursor on the word "Title" to the right of the block
name or network name (for example, Network 1: Title:). A text box is opened in which you can
enter the title. This can be up to 64 characters long.
Block comments pertain to the whole logic block. There they can comment the function of the
block. Network comments pertain to the individual networks and document details about the
network.
To assign network titles automatically, select menu command Options > Settings and click on the
option "Automatic Assignment of Network Title" in the "General" tab. The symbol comment of the
first address entered will then be applied as network title.
Block Comments and Network Comments
You can toggle the view of the gray comment fields on and off using the menu command View >
Display with > Comments. A double-click on the comment field opens the text box in which you
can now enter your remarks. You are allowed 64 Kbytes per block for block comments and network
comments.
