Using the Database Editor

The database editor provides access to all comments and symbols for a processor
memory file. The database stores program documentation separately from the
program logic. The database editor allows you to modify, delete, or insert
addresses, symbols, and comments into the documentation database.

The database editor display contains four windows, each for different types of
database information. These types are:

address and symbols (default)

address comments

instruction comments

rung comments

There are two ways of editing the database:

Enter the database editor mode and use function keys [F1], [F2], or [F3]. These
keys work the same as the previous section describes; however, when you are
editing your comments, you can edit any type of comment without restrictions.
Refer to the previous sections of this chapter for more information.

To enter addresses and symbols before entering the ladder program use function
key [F5], Edit DBase.
