Test Run on Signal Scope
5.2.9.0 Adding Variables
In this task, you replace the currently fixed end-level values of the Cycle activity with variable values. After
you define an Input Parameters activity, the operator can enter variable values that define the cycle end
levels before running the test.
1. Click the Procedure tab.
2. Click the Cycle activity in the Toolbox panel.
3. Observe the Relative End Level 1 property. Note that the current value is 2 mm, and the icon directly to
the right of the Relative End Level 1 label contains parentheses.

4. Click the icon and observe that it toggles (changes) its appearance. The Variable icon contains empty
brackets. Also, note that the property value (2 mm) has cleared. The property is now ready to be assigned
to a variable.
