Connect an Input parameter to a controller scope tag
A parameter can be connected to another parameter or controller scope tag. As an
example, connecting an Input parameter to an Output parameter ensures that data
is copied to the Input parameter from the Output parameter on every scan. The
following procedure explains how to connect an Input parameter to a controller
scope tag.
Tip: This procedure demonstrates the use of the Properties pane on the Program Parameters and Local Tags
dialog box. You can alternatively connect parameters using any of the other methods shown in
Program
parameter connection methods on page 8 .
1. In the Controller Organizer, expand the folder for the program for which
you are connecting an Input parameter, and double-click Parameters and
Local Tags.
2. On the Program Parameters and Local Tags dialog box, choose the Input
parameter that you want to connect.
