7.1.2 Parameters
Parameters are defined in the Editor and do not change during the running time. An
exception to this are the input parameters, which can be modified in a menu on the
CMU or with a connected PC during the running time.
Parameters have one of the following types:
7.1.2.1 Numerical Parameters
A numerical parameter is a decimal number in accordance with the inputs/outputs.
7.1.2.2 Whole Number
A whole number is a natural number, i.e. it has no digits after the decimal point. As a
rule, no negative numbers are permitted either. Whole numbers are used for example
for numbering purposes.
7.1.2.3 Entry List
An entry from a list is selected for the input list type. The quantity and the type of list
entries is dependent on the respective parameter.
7.1.2.4 Boolean Parameters
A Boolean parameter has, as was already described in connection with the
inputs/outputs, only two logical statuses: "0" and "1". Nevertheless, it is not "0" and "1"
that are set in the Editor, but rather such terms as "No" or "Yes", "Inactive" or "Active",
"Off" or "On", depending on the context.
7.1.2.5 Character String
A character string is an arbitrary text, the length of which is usually limited. In addition,
preceding and subsequent empty spaces are usually removed automatically.
7.1.2.6 Values Table
A values table is a table with several values, whereby each value is positioned in a line
of its own.
Furthermore, it is also possible to enter value pairs. The individual values of a value
pair are then separated from one another with a colon ":".
7.1.2.7 Time
The specification of a time of the day is accomplished in the country-specific format
that is set in Windows.
