Identifier
The identifier is the proper name of a variable and should indicate the application or function of the
variable.
•
Identifiers always start with a capital letter.
•
If an identifier is assembled from several ” words” , then each ” word” must start with a capital
letter.
•
All other letters are written in lower case.
Examples of identifiers:
JogValue
NumberOfValues
CurrentSelectedJogValue
6.2.5
Indication of the signal type
In general, it is possible to assign a certain signal type to the inputs and outputs of Lenze function
blocks/system blocks. There are digital, analog, position and speed signals.
A corresponding ending (preceded by an underscore) is added to the identifier of the input/output
variable to indicate the signal type.
