Data Editor Lite is a version of the
Data Editor that is smaller in size and therefore faster to download, especially for use via a dial-up connection.
Data Editor Lite presents the same interface as the Data Editor, with the exception that its toolbar does not include the Read PLC Symbols function:
Data Editor Lite accepts the following IEC variables:
|
Address
|
Type
|
Display
|
|
%MW IEC internal word
|
INT
|
DECIMAL
|
|
%MD IEC double word
|
DINT
|
DECIMAL
|
|
%M IEC internal bits
|
BOOL
|
BOOLEAN
|
NOTE: You cannot access the Lookup Variable dialog and insert symbols into a data template using Data Editor Lite. You can insert only direct addresses.
Re-Using Data Editor Templates
Data Editor Lite can reuse the same templates created with the Data Editor. However, Data Editor templates can use a wider range of variable types than Data Editor Lite. When Data Editor Lite encounters a variable it cannot manage, it displays Not Supported as the data type. In this case, the variable cannot be edited using Data Editor Lite.
