7.2 Setting Drawing Properties

This section describes the Property Windows used to manage the configuration information for
individual ladder programs.

7.2.1 Outline of Property Window

Properties are attributes set for each ladder program or function program. The following
information can be set.

• Configuration definitions
• I/O definitions (functions only)
• Symbol definitions
• # register definitions
• Revision histories

There are default settings for properties so they do not always have to be set. Settings are
required, however, for ladder logic programs that use many registers.

Check what attributes have been set before using ladder logic programs.

7.2.2 Opening Property Windows

Use one of the following two procedures to open a Property Window.

Opening from the Engineering Manager

Select File (F), Open (O), Drawing (P), and then Properties (R) on the programming
menus.

If the program is not open, an Open DWG Setting Window will be displayed. Specify DWG
for a main ladder program or FUNC for a ladder function program, input the drawing name,
and click the OK Button. The Open DWG Setting Window will not be displayed if the pro-
gram is open.

The Property Window for the program will be opened.
