Installing parameter assignment screen forms
Call the SETUP.EXE program on the backup copy of your installation diskette. This installs
both the parameter assignment screen forms and the FC CNT_CTRL and the FC DIAG_INF
on your programming device. The FCs are added to the standard library in the "FM_CNT_L"
catalog. Follow the instructions displayed in the SETUP menu on the display.
A comprehensive example program is inserted into the "Examples" sub catalog in the STEP
7 catalog in the FM_ZAEHL project during installation.
