Graphical Configuration 117
9.6.5.1 Notes Window
User notes can be attached to a function block file. Simply enter your text in the multi-line text box. These
notes become part of the function block when you save the file.
9.6.5.2 Netlist Window
The STG Netlist is built automatically as you add function block symbols and create interconnections
between them. The Netlist is basically a parts and interconnection list. It is provided as a debugging aid to
show you which function blocks have been created, parameter assignments, and the connection list. Edit-
ing this text has no effect on the Netlist.
9.6.5.3 Function Block Parameter Window
This window allows you to modify the atom parameters of the selected function block. Parameters are not
saved until you issue a Save command.
The top part of the window is the "Module ID" window which shows the module number of the selected
Function Block.
How you save an open Application in the STG Editor child window (including any optional notes you
entered) depends on whether you want to save it as a Library or Installed Application.
If you want to save it as a Library Application (with the same name or with a new name):
1.
Use the main menu File > Save to Library command.
2.
The SAVE window will open.
3.
To reuse the name currently displayed in the Model Name box, click on OK. The Application
will be saved to the Micro-Tools library, overwriting any existing Application with that name.
4.
To save with a different name, type the new name in the Model Name box. You can also use
the hierarchy at the right of the SAVE window to specify a library category for the template.
(By default, it will be added to the User category.) The Application will be saved to the Micro-
Tools library using the name you entered. If an Application with that name already exists, it will
be overwritten.
If you want to save it as an Installed Application:
1.
From the main menu, select File > Save to a Controller. A "Save to a Controller"
confirmation window will be displayed.
2.
Choose the Project and Controller that you want to receive the Application.
To print an Application diagram:
1.
Display the Application by opening it for editing.
2.
From the main menu select File > Print. The PRINT window will open.
3.
Specify:
•
Whether the output should go to the screen or the default printer (as defined in the com-
puter's operating system).
•
Whether the orientation should be portrait or landscape.
•
How the image should be sized.
4.
Click on OK to initiate the print job.
