Specifying Symbolic Addresses
When you specify symbolic address, follow these guidelines:
•
Start the name with an alphabetic character (not a number).
•
The symbol must begin with a letter and can contain as many as 10 of
the following characters:
–
–
A-Z (upper and lower case)
–
–
0-9
–
–
underscore (_)
•
You can substitute a symbolic address for word or bit addresses.
IMPORTANT
Symbols are a feature of the programming software (not
the controller) and are stored in a database on the hard disk
of the personal computer you are using. If you use a
terminal other than the one on which you defined the
symbols, you will not have access to the symbol database.
