Editing Block Parameters
The Block window displays the parameters in the order that they
appear in the block. Parameters with a plus sign beside them are
records or arrays (structures) that contain more than one entry. To
expand the record or array, click the plus sign, or to collapse the
structure, click the minus sign.
To edit a block parameter value, complete the following steps:
1. In the Function Block Application Editor, double-click a function
block to open the Block window.
2. To see the values of the record or array parameters in the Block
window, click the plus signs.
3. To change a paramter value, select the value and type in the
new value. If a parameter value is grayed out, it is read-only and
you cannot change it. After you change a parameter value, an
asterisk (*) appears by the parameter name.
4. To make your changes effective immediately, click the Write
changes button on the Block window toolbar. If you do not
click the Write changes button, your changes will not take effect
until you download the configuration.
