Programs Directory

At a Glance

The Programs directory of the structural view of the project allows you to define the structure of the program and to access the language editors of the program elements: Program Units, sections, program modules and event processing.

NOTE: When Program Units in the application are not allowed, the Logic folder is replaced by the Sections folder in the directory tree. For more detailed information refer to the chapter Description of the Available Functions for Each Type of PLC.

Services associated with the sequential Tasks directories.

The sequential Tasks directories (MAST, FAST, etc.) allow you to access the following services, which can be reached via the contextual menu:

Directory	Services
Tasks	New Task ...: allows you to create a new sequential task (FAST, AUX, AUX0, AUX1). The MAST task is created by default. Import ... : allows you to import a task.
MAST, FAST, etc.	Delete : allows you to delete the task. The MAST task cannot be deleted. Clear : allows you to clear the contents of the task. This clears all the sections of the task. Export: allows you to export the sequential task. Properties: allows you to access the properties of the sequential task.
Logic	New Program Unit...: allows you to create a new “empty” Program Unit. New Section ... : allows you to create a new “empty” section. Import ...: allows you to import a program unit or a section. Create builded Activation Conditions Table: allows you to initialize an animation table, with the activation condition variables associated with the sections.
Or
Sections	New Section ...: allows you to create a new "empty" section. Import ...: allows you to import a section. Create section activation conditions table: allows you to initialize an animation table, with the activation condition variables associated with the sections.

Services associated with the Program Unit

For each section	Open : allows you to access the section language editor. Delete: allows you to delete the section. Detach : allows you to detach the section of the functional module. Export: allows you to export the section. Import after ...: allows you to import a section Forcing to 0, allows you to choose Force to 0 as the activation condition of the section (in online mode). Forcing to 1, allows you to choose Force to 1 as the activation condition of the section (in online mode). Unforce : allows you to choose cancel forcing as the activation condition of the section (in online mode). Properties: allows you to access the properties of the section.
For each Section Macro-step, action, or transition	Open : allows you to access the section language editor. Delete: allows you to delete the section. Properties : allows you to access the properties of the section.
