turn on, you would use the Button On command and set the Button parameter
to 2.

information, see “
Configuring operator panels ” on page 128 .
Parameters for this command include:
Button – Which button on the panel that will be forced on/off by the
command. The buttons on each panel are numbered from left to right.
The value of Button may be an Input/Memory/Output tag, a literal
numeric value, or some other logical expression that is evaluated every
time the block is executed.
