VisualApplets
Operator Reference

Displays the error status. If the Activate parameter is set to Yes, the other module parameters are checked. This parameter displays the result of this check, i.e. either OK or an error message.

This parameter is not part of the final applet.

If you want to grant access from and to the parameter at another point in the design (in addition to the operator instance itself), you need to define a new parameter. Specify here the name of this new parameter.

If this field is empty, no new parameter is created.

Specify here the hierarchical box to which you want to attach the new map parameter you defined with the DisplayName parameter.

For this parameter, you can use the autocompletion functionality and syntax highlighting. To use autocompletion, click into the Parameter Values field of this parameter in the Module Properties dialog, and press the TAB key of your keyboard. More detailed instructions for the autocompletion functionality are available at 'Autocompletion and Syntax Highlighting for Translator and Reference Operators'.

If you defined a new DisplayName parameter, but leave the DisplayHierarchy parameter empty: The new parameter is added to the hierarchical box that contains the operator instance. This is not possible if the operator instance is located on the highest (process) level.

Syntax for Setting up Path to Display Target

If you want the new parameter to show up in another place of the design, you need to specify the path to the hierarchical box that is to contain the new parameter in the DisplayHierarchy parameter. The syntax is as follows: <Path> is the relative path from the process level to the level of the design where the <Hierarchical Box> is located which will get the new parameter. Thus, the DisplayHierarchy parameter can only address hierarchical boxes within the same process. Use a slash as separator between different hierarchical levels. <HierarchicalBox> is the name of the hierarchical box that is to receive the new map parameter. Example: Level0/Level1

With this parameter you can define the number of field entries.

With this parameter you can define the number of columns for entering field values in the module properties dialog.

With this parameter you can set the field index here.

With this parameter you can set or read the field entry addressed by the Index parameter.

This field parameter defines the content of the variable field.

Enter here the unit for the Value parameter.

Enter here the description for the Value parameter.

With this parameter you can define the smallest valid value. You can also enter a formula here.

With this parameter you can define the biggest valid value. You can also enter a formula here.

With this parameter you can define the interval between valid values (definition of step size). You can also enter a formula here.

Yes = Access to and from the variable is activated via the Value map parameter.

No = Access to and from the variable is de-activated and the Status parameter is disabled. The DisplayName and DisplayHierarchy parameters have no effect.
