6.6.17 'Online' 'Release force'
Shortcut: <Shift>+<F7>
This command ends the forcing of variable values in the controller. The variable values
change again in the normal way.
Forced variables can be recognized in Monitoring by the red color in which their values
are displayed. You can delete the whole forcelist, but you can also mark single
variables for which the forcing should be released.
To delete the whole forcelist, which means to release force for all variables, choose
one of the following ways:
• Command 'Release Force' in menu 'Online'.
• Button 'Release Force' in dialog 'Editing the writelist and the forcelist'
• Delete the whole forcelist using the command 'Release Force' in the dialog
'Remove Write-/Forcelist'. This dialog opens if you choose the command 'Release
Force' while also a writelist exists.
• To release force only for single variables you have to mark these variable first. Do
this in one ways described in the following. After that the chosen variables are
marked with an turquoise extension <Release Force>:
• A double mouse click on a line, in which a non boolean variable is declared, opens
the dialog 'Write variable <x>'. Press button <Release Force for this variable> .
• Repeat double mouse clicks on a line in which a boolean variable is declared to
toggle to the display <Release Force> at the end of the line.
• In the menu 'Online' open the Write/Force-Dialog and delete the value in the edit
field of the column 'Forced value'.
When for all desired variables the setting "<Release Force>" is shown in the
declaration window, choose the command 'Force values' to transfer the modifications
of the forcelist to the program.
