5.7  Plain texts for PLC machine data 
Application-specific and language-dependent plaintexts can be configured for each 
index for so-called PLC machine data.  
 
14510[i] User data (INT)    i = 0 ... 255 
14512[i] User data (HEX)    i = 0 ... 255 
14514[i] User data (FLOAT)  i = 0 ... 31 
 
Storage 
Text files named NCTEA_xx.TXT (xx = language code deu, eng, etc.) can be 
stored on the CompactFlash card in the following directories: 
user\lng, 
addon\lng or 
oem\lng 
 
Syntax 
Plaintext number 
Number:    Number of the machine data item  
Plain text:  Plaintext of the machine data item, maximum 62 characters  
    (The plaintext cannot be enclosed by inverted comas.) 
 
Machine data with different indices: 
Number[x] plaintext 
x: Index of the machine data item 
 
 
Note 
If a machine data item has different indices and you do not specify an index for 
the plaintext, the same plaintext appears for all the indices of the machine data 
item. 
 
 
 
Note 
PLC machine data plaintexts are created and handled in the same way as alarm 
texts. 
 
Display 
The text for the selected machine data item is displayed below the machine data 
list in the Start-up operating area.
