You can perform all of the tasks necessary to configure steps from the Edit Step
screen:
If you want to: Press this key:
Display all equations related to a particular step and enter
your equations. [F1] - Equatn List
Toggle between address comment, symbolic name, or
logical address of I/O. The function key always displays
the next format; for example, if address comments are
being displayed, then [F2] reads Display Symbol. [F2] - Display Comment/Symbol/LogAdr
Enter or modify step name. Step name may be up to 20
characters long. [F3] - Step Name
Select between normal step label or error step label.
Normal is displayed as STEP; error is displayed as
ERSTEP. See chapter 7, “Configuring Diagnostic
Messages” for details regarding selection of this field as it
relates to diagnostics. [F4] - Step Type
Switch to another step without leaving the Edit Step
screen. System prompts you for step you want to edit. [F5] - Edit Step
Enter or change the timer preset value and destination step
of step timer. The step timer can be used as a watchdog
timer to ensure an input transition occurs within a specified
time (by entering WARN as a destination step), or as a
dwell timer. [F6] - Step Timer
You can enter up to 10 characters in the step timer field.
Valid ranges for step timers are:
– time base 1.0 (32767 seconds)
– time base 0.01 (327.67 seconds)
Select between message ON and message OFF on the
operator interface display. Function key displays the
opposite function. The function is normally off for a normal
step and on for an error step to generate a message. [F7] - Msg On/Off
Switch between the input transitions of ON->OFF,
OFF->ON, AND, or NOT. Function key is active only when
cursor is in input transition field. [F8] - Equatn Editor
Switch between output state of ON, OFF, and LAST. LAST
maintains the last state of the output. This key is active
only when the cursor is in the output state field. [F9] - Output State
Select the one valid exit out of the step; that is, select the
“normal” path for the operation. [F10] – Marked Exit
