Online in Security mode: In Online mode with the commands 'Run', 'Stop', 'Reset'
'Toggle Breakpoint', 'Single cycle', 'Write values', 'Force values' and 'Release force', a
dialog box appears with the confirmation request whether the command should
really be executed. If supported by the target system, an extended dialog might be
available when you want to load the actual project from the programming system to
the PLC If there is already a project on the PLC, this dialog will display the project
information of that project as well as the information of the project currently to be
loaded. This project information also will be available in case of creating a boot project
when there is already one on the PLC.
This option is saved with the project.
Query communication parameters before login: As soon as the command 'Online'
'Login' is executed, first the communication parameters dialog will open. To get in
online mode you must first close this dialog with OK.
Do not save communication parameters in project: The settings of the
communication parameters dialog ('Online' 'Communication Parameters') will not be
saved with the project.
Show print area margins: In every editor window, the limits of the currently set print
range are marked with red dashed lines. Their size depends on the printer
characteristics (paper size, orientation) and on the size of the "Content" field of the set
print layout (menu: 'File" "Documentation Settings").
F4 ignores warnings: After compilation, when F4 is pressed in a message window, the
focus jumps only to lines with error messages; warning messages are ignored.
MDI representation: Per default this option (Multiple-Document-Interface) is
activated and thus several windows can be opened at the same time. If the option is
deactivated (SDI mode) only one window can be opened and will be displayed in full
screen mode. Exception: The action of a program and the program itself can be
displayed side by side even in MDI mode.
Communications timeout [ms]: for standard communication services: Time span in
milliseconds, after which the communication to the target system will be terminated
if no more activity is detected. Possible values: 1-10000000 ms.
Communications timeout for download [ms]: for long lasting communication services
(program download, file up- and download, boot project creation and check): Time
span in milliseconds after which the communication to the target system will be
terminated if no more activity is detected (Download Wait Time). Possible values: 1-
10000000 ms.
XML-Encoding: The format for XML-exports can be selected. The default setting is "ISO
8859-1". This concerns the communication via ENI, Message Interface and COM
Automation Interface, as well as each user-triggered XML-export from »PLC Designer«.
An exception is the XML-export of the Licensing Manager.
