Reading configuration data – PARA
The PARA function is used to read configuration data. To do this,
use the parameter designations from the configuration parameters.
You also use the designations from the configuration parameters to
read user parameters.
When you read optional parameters, check whether the return
value is valid. Depending on the data type of the parameter (REAL/
STRING) the value 0 or the text _EMPTY is returned when reading
an optional attribute that has not been set.
Access to configuration data
