5.1.5 Configuration parameters
Configuration parameters can be viewed and set with the Parameter Setting tool.
5.1.6 Connections and variables
A connection is the link or "wire" between function block outputs and inputs.
There are rules and methods for making connections.
• Drag a line between two signals
• Link two signals by using variables
It is possible to search and replace variable names in Application
Configuration tool.
Connect the variables to a destination, for example to a function block or
a hardware output channel. The connectivity package automatically
removes the orphan variables which are not connected to any destination.
Connection validation
A connection is only useful or even possible between two signals of the same base
attribute type.
