EQP LOGIC EDITOR
Local Memory
This menu item opens the “Local Memory Editor...”
which allows for the creation of and displays
information on the five types of local memory. It also
allows for the adjustment of memory allocations.
The dialog box is “tabbed” allowing for the selection
of the memory type to be displayed/edited. In the
example to the right, “Boolean” is selected and there
are no points created yet.
To create a local memory point, put the editing cursor
in the “Tagname” field and enter a tagname, then if
desired enter a long name in the “Description” field.
Once created, this local memory point will be available in the logic editor for use as an input to or output from
logic elements.
Value
The value column is available in each of the six local memory types and allows the setting of an initial value.
This value will be used when the program begins execution and if the variable is not written to it will remain
unchanged.
Memory Allocation
Local Memory is allocated in the same manner as described
earlier for Global Memory. A “Memory Allocation...” dialog
box provides a slider to adjust the amount of memory for
each type.
Memory Export/Import
Global and local memories can be exported as an excel
spreadsheet (CSV), or a text file which can be opened in a
text editing program. Nothing will be exported if the memory
editor is not populated.
AB Export/Import
This selection allows the AB (Alan Bradley) settings created to be exported or imported to and from MS Excel or
a text editing program.
