Database Editor 75
7.4.14 DATA TABLES Menu
If you are already very familiar with the structure of the 53MC5000 database and prefer to access data
points by their database addresses, use the button labeled Data Tables at the right of the Database Editor
window.
The Database Values window shown in Figure 7-23 will open. In this window the data points are listed by
type and by address. Tabs are provided for each data type. Use the arrow buttons at the bottom of the win-
dow to page through the list of points for each type. Use the refresh button to update the screen with the
current database information.
Selecting Data Tables from the main menu permits:
• Displaying of lists containing all database points in the controller and the value of each point.
• Configuring any point (changing the value); the database points are arranged by data type.
7.4.14.1 Viewing and Changing Database Points
To view a database point, use the forward (>) and backward (<) buttons located in the lower left of the dis-
play. The display will change to show additional database points and the snapshot value of each point as
shown in
Figure 7-23 .
To change the value assigned to a data point, highlight the point, then type the new value in the text entry
box (at the bottom right corner of the data table). When you press the ENTER key, the value is changed in
the off-line database or on-line controller. Select the refresh button to update the data table.
ANY CHANGES MADE HERE WILL IMMEDIATELY BE MADE TO THE CONTROLLER’S DATABASE.
