What is DeviceLogix Functionality? Chapter 1

To start the DeviceLogix Editor for a DeviceLogix-enabled device,
click Start Logic Editor. On the DeviceLogix Editor Style Selection
dialog, you are prompted to select the editor type that you want to
launch. After selecting an editor type, click OK.

If the current device does not support one of the editor types, that
editor type will be grayed out.

For more information on the Function Block Editor, refer to Chapters
2 and 3. For more information on the Old Ladder Editor, refer to
Chapters 4 and 5. For more information on the New Ladder Editor,
refer to Chapters 6 and 7.

IMPORTANT

If you select an editor type for a particular device and that type
is committed to the .dnt file (clicking OK or Apply), that editor
style is registered. Therefore, you cannot switch to another
editor style in that same .dnt file (the next time you launch the
DeviceLogix Editor Style Selection dialog, the other editor style
is grayed out). If you want to change the editor type (and a
device supports both editor types), you must create a new
project file, add this device again, and then select the other
editor type.
