OMRON
Use the following procedure to edit instructions in simple dialog mode.
1, 2, 3...
Note: When inputting operands for special instructions using CX-Programmer version 5.0 or higher,
symbols can be filtered using symbol names and I/O comments and displayed in a list. Click the
Filter Symbol Button and enter a text string in the Filter Symbol Dialog Box to limit the search to
symbols with symbol names or I/O comments that contain the specified text string. A list of these
address_comment or name_address_comment combinations will be displayed in the drop-down list.
Input the required item by selecting it from the list. Use this procedure to increase input efficiency
when inputting symbols or comments that have been input before.
This procedure can be used when inputting both programs and function block definitions.
Example:
1 Click the Filter Symbol Button.
1. Double-click on the instruction field in the Ladder program. The Edit Instruction dialog is
displayed.
2. Enter an instruction, either by name or by number. When a correct number has been
entered (of the correct number of digits for the PLC type), the instruction name is
automatically substituted. To insert an instruction with immediate Refresh properties,
apply an exclamation mark ('!') to the beginning of the instruction. To insert a
differentiated instruction, apply a '@' symbol to differentiate up or a '%' symbol to
differentiate down at the beginning of the instruction. When the Show with comment
dialog option is selected in the Options dialog, a comment dialog will appear after
entering an address or a symbol name.
Note: Check the Show with comment dialog option in the Diagram tab of the Options dialog to
display a comment dialog. The dialog is displayed after the OK pushbutton is selected
on the Contact or Coil dialog.
3. Enter operands in the same text box with a space between the instruction and each
operand (see below for more details about entering operands).
4. Select the OK pushbutton to complete the operation. Select the Cancel pushbutton to
abort the operation.
