C VARIABLES IN THE PAGELAB PROJECT Usually an HMI project is not a stand alone one but is an interface for a PLC More pre cisely if the PLC project has been carried out with LogicLab you can easily publish some variables to PageLab A variable of the LogicLab project can be exported to PageLab if it has been allocated ona datablock it is not an automatic variable If this pre condition holds when compiling the PLC the program automatically creates an exp file which contains a list of the exported variables with their location in the datablocks which the PageLab program can work out In order to import in PageLab the variables which have been exported from the PLC LogicLab project you have to select the Link PLC variables file from the Project menu A window opens and lets you select the file which contains the exported variables If you confirm to include the exp file in the PageLab project a new table called PLC vars appears in the libraries window It contains the list of the exported variables i TagetVaIs PLC vars When you need to update the list of the exported variables if the exp file has not been moved to another directory it is not necessary to repeat the above mentioned procedure It is enough to launch the Refresh PLC variables command from the Project menu PageLab user manual 19 PA GE LAEB 2 8 4 INSERTING FIELD PARAMETERS Target system usually has internal variables and is connected on a f
