The recipe function is similar to the recipe editor of the PLC programming tool. The recipe is a
data record containing all variables necessary for a certain recipe, e.g. for manufacturing a
product. You can use the recipe function of GTWIN to enter, change or read values for the
variables stored in the recipe.
Structure of a recipe file
Up to 100 files can be created. The individual recipe files can be copied and moved within the
"Recipe" dialog. You can check how much memory your recipes require via View  Total
Memory Usage.
Each file can contain up to 100 recipes. Each recipe can contain up to 100 sets of data =
values. If you are handling large amounts of data, you can export the recipe to a CSV file, edit
it with Excel, for example, and import. If you need to enter values for the recipe on site, you
can do so via keyboard parts (see p. 223).
