Checkbox for visibility in the ETS
The checkbox at the beginning of the line for each list entry defines whether the corresponding net-

of the current properties/values of the network variables, e.g. “Read on reset”, can be edited in the
area of the “Properties” tab (see Section “'Properties' tab”).

lines in the “List of network variables” simultaneously. The changes that you make in the “Properties”
tab then apply to all network variables marked in the list.
