9.1.2 Parameters
Parameters are defined in the Editor and do not change during the running time.
Exceptions to this are the input parameters which can be modified during the running
time in a menu on the CSI-F-10 or using a PC which is connected.
Parameters have one of the following types:
9.1.2.1 Numerical Parameters
A numerical parameter is a decimal number in accordance with the inputs/outputs.
9.1.2.2 Whole Number
A whole number is a natural number, i.e. it has no digits after the decimal point. As a
rule, no negative numbers are permitted either. Whole numbers are used for example
for numbering purposes.
9.1.2.3 Input List
An entry from a list is selected for the input list type. The quantity and the type of list
entries is dependent on the particular parameter.
9.1.2.4 Boolean Parameters
A Boolean parameter has, as already described in connection with the inputs/outputs,
only two logical statuses: "0" and "1". Nevertheless, it is not "0" and "1" that are set in
the Editor, but rather such terms as "No" or "Yes", "Inactive" or "Active", "Off" or "On",
depending on the context.
9.1.2.5 Character String
A character string is an arbitrary text, the length of which is usually limited. In addition,
any leading and subsequent empty spaces are usually removed automatically.
9.1.2.6 Values Table
A values table is a table with several values, whereby each value is positioned in a line
of its own.
Furthermore, it is also possible to enter value pairs. The individual values of a value
pair are then separated from one another with a colon ":".
9.1.2.7 Time of day
The time of the day is specified in the country-specific format that is set in Windows.
