General columns in the signal table
For a description of the general signal table columns see Columns in tables with analog and digital signals.
Symbol
In this column, you will find the symbolic name of the signal as configured in the X-Pact system.
You may enter the symbol name also manually. However, it is recommended using the signal browser, as it is easier and saver.
In compliance with the naming rules in the X-Pact system the full symbol path is indicated.
Two different methods are available:
a) over the link in the "General" tab of the module. With this method, the signals selected from the signal browser will be put into the next free row of the signal table. This is helpful if you fill the signal table for the first time or if you want to fill up a signal table.
b) Via the small browser button
in the "Symbol" column of the desired signal. With this method, you determine exactly
the position where a symbol must be entered in the table.
