Creating momentary push buttons

Use the Momentary Push Button tool to create a button that starts a process or action.

A momentary push button changes a tag to one value when pressed, and to another value
when released. You can specify values for the press and release actions, or the momentary
push button can have these states:

Normally open

means the released state of the button is off: when the button is

pressed, the tag’s value is set to 1; when the button is released, the tag’s value is set to
zero. Pressing the button completes the circuit.
