8. Click the Use Label checkbox if you want to use a label.
9. You can have a different label for each state of the Bit Lamp. In the State: box, enter the state
that you wish to edit, then enter the label for that state in the Content: box. Do the same for
other states. Click the Duplicate this label to other states button if you want to use the same
label for all states.
10. Enter the color that you want for the label in the Color: box. You can select a different color
for each label state.
11. Enter how you want the label to be positioned in the Align: box. You can select a different
position for each label state.
12. Enter the size of the label in the Font: box. You can select a different font for each label state.
13. Click the Tracking checkbox if you want the labels for all states to follow or 'track' with the
movement of one label when it is moved after the Recipe Transfer object is placed onto the
window.
14. Click OK. The Create Recipe Transfer Object form closes and the main screen of
EasyBuilder appears with the cursor tied to a rectangular outline of the part you just created at
the upper left corner of the screen. Move the part to the desired location on the window.
Once the part is placed onto the window, you can adjust the location of the label inside the
part by clicking once on the label. This will highlight the entire object.
15. Click on the label again. Now only the label is highlighted, allowing you to move it without
moving the part.

Cre ating a Rec ipe

A recipe consists of a number of registers using the RW or RB devices. These devices are in a non-volatile area of
the OITs' internal memory area. A recipe is created by using the OIT's built-in Parts to store data in the RW/RB
devices, and then transferring that data to the selected PLC registers.
Recipe Devices There are 4 types of Recipe devices: Recipe Word (RW) , Indexed address Recipe words (RWI),
Recipe Bit (RB), and Indexed address Recipe Bit (RBI). The usage of RW and RB devices is the
same. Therefore, in the following discussion, Rn refers to both RW and RB devices, and RnI
refers to both RWI and RBI devices.
Rn Device Refers to a direct Rn address. That is, the value placed in the Address field of an Rn device refers
directly to the Rn address. For example, Rn100 refers directly to the data at address Rn100.
RnI Device An address with an RnI device is an Indexed address. The address referred to by an RnI device is
actually the specified address plus an indexed offset. The offset is the value in address LW9000.
For example, suppose address LW9000 contains the value 50, and the Address field of an RnI
device is set to 100. This Indexed address actually refers to the data at address Rn150.
Rn De vices Vs RnI De vices
RnI devices Indexed address devices are most useful when it is necessary to 'page' through a number of
recipes. RnI devices allow a single window to manage all recipe items. Conversely, the use of Rn
devices requires a separate window for each recipe, with each object on each window having a
separate address. This not only uses more of the OIT's resources, but could also lead to
configuration errors as objects are copied, pasted, and edited.
Rn devices Use when it is desired to show unique information from a recipe. For example, it might be
necessary to show, one window, the names of all of the recipes.
If you double-click (click twice rapidly) then you will not highlight the label but rather
enter the Recipe.
RB devices use the same memory area as the RW devices. The RB device allows
Bit-level access to recipe data. The bit address is specified by using the RW address,
followed by the bit number 0-F (hex). For example, Bit RB0 is Bit 0 in RW0; Bit
RW2047F is Bit 16 in RW2047.
