Up Down
An Up Down primitive is provide operators with text box that displays a
current value. In Production mode, the up and down arrow buttons next to
the text box are used for incrementing or decrementing a value between
set minimum and maximum values. Operators can also type a valid value
directly within the text box.
When the Up Down primitive is associated with the O
