Programming the IP 265 with COM 265
Connectors (# or <#>)
Connectors can be used in IP 265 application programs both in the margin bars and in the logic
field. Connectors make it possible to branch signal leads within a segment and between the
segments in the application program.
Each connector must be assigned a symbolic name. The symbolic name for a connector may not
exceed 24 (ASCII) characters.

(max. 8) via a distributor.
