Each trigger can be assigned a label, which determines its behavior at the central
start date for maintenance (see also: Sub-section 6.1.3 "Machines" Æ Master data,
and general description of triggers):
• If a label has been set and a start date, which has not yet been reached, has
been configured in the master data, the trigger will not be initiated.
• If the date has been reached or is in the past, the trigger will be initiated
according to the conditions set for it.
• If a start date has not been configured, or the label has not been set, the
trigger will be initiated according to the conditions set for it.

for the absolute addresses, their data
types, or the possible comparison
operations.
Notice:
Subsequent correction of the absolute
address data type is not possible. The
variable must be deleted in its entirety,
along with its comparison operation, and a
new variable created.
INPUT

Force absolute
address
To make it necessary for the trigger logic
operations and comparison operations to
be manipulated by deleting entries that
have already been made (for testing
purposes) each individual address can be
forced, i.e. the address does not
participate in the AND logic operation of
the trigger.
