A recipe comprises a maximum of 255 variables. In addition, up to 255 explanatory
texts can be programmed. The variables and texts can be spread out over a maxi-
mum of 255 lines (with each line stretching across the entire width of the screen). A
help text can be programmed for every variable.
The recipe is displayed in a recipe field, within an I/O mask, that extends over the
entire width of the screen. The height of the recipe field can be as small as one line
or as large as the entire height of the screen. The Page up / Page down keys and
the cursor keys can be used to scroll through long recipes in the recipe field.
All one-line formats and Editors that are available in I/O masks can also be used for
recipe variables. Multiple-line formats can not be used (for example, multiple-line
selection fields, tables, etc.). In addition, neither variables nor texts can be dis-
played with the zoom option.
The majority of the operations described below refer to the active data set. In order
to activate a data set, first select the recipe to which it belongs and then the data set
itself. How to select recipes and data sets is explained in the next two sections.
