Translation Table declarations
Translation tables are defined at the end of the CSV file. Each table is created
with
BEGIN_TABLE and END_TABLE declarations. The table name and type
are declared with a TABLE line. The fields in a TABLE declaration are in
Table 5.D.
A TABLE_VAL statement declares each translation set in a table. The format
for this line type is specified in Table 5.E.
Since you can not browse the OPC server address space within the
ProcessLogix OPC Server (HWHsc.OPCServer); other methods have been
designed to implement this function.
Within the Control Builder program, you must export the current
configuration (or any desired tree level) that you need.
To export the current configuration, do the following:
1. Open Control Builder.
2. Select File ⇒ Export from the main menu to export the configuration or
the desired branch(es).
