Creating an ASCII Documentation File
When creating an ASCII documentation file, follow these guidelines:
•
To create the file, use a text editor that produces only printable ASCII
characters, with no control or hidden characters.
•
Do not use graphics characters. IBM extended characters can be used within
comment strings and as part of symbols.
The ASCII documentation file may contain one or more of the following:
•
address comments
•
instruction comments
•
rung comments
•
symbols
You can group statements together by keyword, or begin each statement with a
keyword. The following example shows an ASCII file using grouped statements.
Notice that all symbols group together after you enter the keyword “SYM”. The
address comments follow the keyword “AC”. You can have the keyword appear
multiple times in a file.
SYM
O:1.2/3 UPLOADED
O:2.1/11 EMPTY_LITE
O:10.2/4 NOZ_FILL
AC
O:11.1/6 “comment–6”
O:9.0/5 “Temporary\Storage\Point”
I:3.0/10 “Conveyor\Running”
Note You must enter the keyword on a line by itself in order for the import utility to
recognize that you are grouping statements.
