Configuring DFA Instructions
5-16
The DFA instruction provides a feature which lets you enter the equivalent
of pre-stored text messages to relate to your inputs. When an input or
inputs change to the defined state (ON or OFF), the DDMC32 software
automatically generates the message on the operator interface terminal.
To enter your messages, follow the procedure below:
1. Start on the Ladder Editing screen.
2. Cursor to the DFA instruction and press [F10] - Edit.
3. Press [F2] - I/O Edit.
The system displays the DFA Message screen:
