●  Limit test of numerical values  
A tag can be configured with limits. If you enter a value outside these limits it will not be 
accepted, for example, "80" is rejected if the configured limit is "78". If an alarm window is 
configured, a system alarm is output on the HMI device and the original value is 
displayed again. 
●  Decimal places for numerical values 
The number of decimal places can be specified for a numerical text box. The number of 
decimal places is checked when you enter a value in this type of text box. 
–  Decimal places in excess of the limit are ignored. 
–  Empty decimal places are filled with "0". 
●  A text box has been selected. 
●  The screen keyboard is displayed. 
1.  Enter the relevant value. 
2.  To discard the input, press <ESC>. 
If you have discarded the entry, the text box remains empty or the original value is 
displayed.  
3.  To confirm the entry, press <ENTER>. 
The value has been entered or changed.  
 
Infotext provides additional information and operating instructions. Infotext can be configured 
for a screen or operating object. The infotext of an I/O field may contain, for example, 
information on the value to be entered.
