Get/Set Value Tab (Upper Right Pane)

The top portion of the Get/Set Value tab displays the values of the most recently clicked on point in the variable list pane (or refresh list) and allows the values to be modified.

The bottom portion contains the refresh list, a list of variables whose values are displayed and updated (refreshed) in real-time. Variables are added to the list by clicking on them in the variable list pane and clicking on the Add to Table button.

See Variable List (Left Pane).

String URL Encoded

Displays and accepts input of string values in URL encoded form.

Raw Hex

Displays raw values in hexadecimal.

CVT/Alt Hex

Displays integer CVT and alternate values in hexadecimal.

Expand All

Expands the hierarchy tree for all variable names in the refresh table at the bottom of the tab. I/O point names with periods or parameter or signal names with forward slashes in the names are hierarchical names and are displayed as a tree. For example, A.ai000 and A.ai001 would display ai000 and ai001 as children of the A node.

Collapse All

Collapses the hierarchy tree for all point names in the refresh table to show just the top level nodes.

Filter

Displays in the refresh table only variables whose name matches the regular expression. See Regular Expressions.

Name

Name of the most recently clicked on point in the variables tables or refresh table.

C Type
