Declaration editor in online mode

In online mode, the declaration editor is a monitor window.

Every line contains a variable followed by an equal sign (=) and the variable value.

•

Three question marks (???) will appear if the variable has not been defined yet.

Multi-element variables

Multi-element variables are identified with a plus sign.

•

Press <Enter> or double-click the variable to open it and to list all components. The variable
will then be identified with a minus sign.

•

Double-click or press <Enter> again to hide the components and to return the plus sign.

Single-element variables

Press <Enter> or double-click a single-element variable to open the dialog box for writing a variable.
The current variable value can be changed by entering a new value. In the case of Boolean variables,
the value will be toggled without dialog box display.

The new value (now represented in a different colour) will not be written to the control immediately.

•

Thus any number of variables can be modified and then written to the control in one go
(cycle-consistent).
