Designing Add-On Instructions

Chapter 1

Constant values

InOut parameters may be designated as constant value tags to prevent their data

from being modified by controller logic. If the logic of an Add-On Instruction
contains a write operation to a constant value parameter, the Add-On Instruction

does not verify in the Add-On Instruction definition context.

External Access

External Access defines the level of access that is allowed for external devices, such

as an HMI, to see or change tag values.
