Symbol Editing

Input symbols can be edited in row units.

1. Symbol Deletion

When a symbol name has been changed in the program window, the symbol name
prior to the change remains and is not deleted. Such unnecessary symbols should be
deleted. Symbol deletion cannot be done in the program window. It must be done
using the menu bar

a. Move the cursor to the symbol to be deleted.

b. Select DEL (D) from Edit (E) in the program menu.

c. The row selected in (a.) is deleted.

2. Symbol Order Change

Symbols can be switched to display in alphabetical order.

a. Select Sort (S) from the View (V) menu.

b. The symbol display is changed to alphabetical order.

Symbol Autonumbering

All symbols in the “AUTO” symbol range are automatically allocated to a desired reg-
ister number. The symbol definitions are displayed as shown below when the Symbol
Definition tab is called up if a symbol name to which no register number has been allo-
cated (undefined symbol) is input.

Normally, the autonumbering function operates with the symbol range in the “AUTO”
state. However, if a register number is already set in the Register Number box (if auto-
numbering has been executed once, the register number was manually input, etc.), it is
not be subject to autonumbering even if “AUTO” is displayed in the Range box for
that symbol.
