Library Operation - Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC-L Series LD40PD01 User Manual

Library operation

The following describes the library.
No library exists immediately after the installation of the configuration tool. Register libraries as necessary.
Registering a library
Register the libraries provided by the manufacturer and exported user libraries in the configuration tool. Registering libraries
adds the blocks in library files in the "Library" tab in the Element Selection window.
1.
Select the following item.
[Edit]  [Library Registration]
2.
Open a library file to be registered in the configuration tool.
3.
The registered library is added in the "Library" tab in the Element Selection window.
How to use a library
Registered libraries can be selected from the Element Selection window and dragged and dropped into the work window to
arrange them in the same way as main blocks.
1.
Select a block in the Element Selection window. Drag and drop the block into the hardware logic outline window.
When a block is dragged into the hardware logic outline window, the area to which the block can be dropped is highlighted.
2.
When the selected block is dropped into the work window, the block is automatically arranged in the highlighted area.
The block name of the arranged library is the same as the main block. For example, when a registered block as a library is a
16-bit unsigned counter, the name of the block arranged in the work window is "Counter_(16bit_Unsigned)".
How to delete a library
Libraries that are no longer required can be deleted from the configuration tool.
1.
Click the library to be deleted in the Element Selection window.
2.
Right-click the library and select "Eliminate Registration of Library" from the context menu.
Even though the library is deleted, the library file is not deleted from the storage folder. To use the library again, register the
library again.
Select [Edit]  [Library Delete] to perform the same operation as selecting "Eliminate Registration of Library"
from the context menu.
