Creating the Label Library

The Label library is a database of text Labels, for use with objects utilizing text labels descriptive of their status or

condition. Each label can consist of up to 256 unique text strings (representing the maximum number of states

available per object), displayable in up to eight separate languages.

The number of states for each label is determined by the number of languages selected.

1 language = 256/1 = 256 states

2 languages = 256/2 = 128 states

4 languages = 256/4 = 64 states

8 languages = 256/8 = 32 states

To create a label text database library:

1. From the Library menu, click Label..., or click the Label Library Manager icon from the Library toolbar. The

Label Library dialog box appears.

2. Create a label by clicking the New... button to display the Label dialog.

3. Enter the Label name for the label, and how many states the new label requires. For example, a label titled

“Start” requires 2 states to represent separate conditions, where condition one status is “START” and

condition two is “STOP.”

4. Click the OK button, and the new label is added to the database. The Name will appear in a selectable listing

of available Labels for use with objects that support text field labeling.
