1-1 Features of the Face Plate Auto-Builder for NS
The Face Plate Auto-Builder for NS is a software package that automatically
builds project files for NS-series Programmable Terminals that are used for
monitoring and tuning the CS1W-LC001 Loop Control Unit or CS1W-LCB01,
CS1W-LCB05, and CS1D-LCB05D Loop Control Boards.
Based on a CSV tag file created using the CX-Process Tool, the software
automatically builds a NS-series project file configured with Face Plate
Screens for the Loop Control Unit/Board.
