register
Enter the first of four 16-bit registers where the terminal stores the name of the recipe
directory that was specified for the block. This name can then be represented as ASCII
object. The function occupies all four registers (8 characters) disregarding the length of
the recipe directory.
Recipe directory Recipes created in the terminal can be stored in various recipe directories (folders) in
the terminal memory.
Using recipe directories allows for a clear structure and easier recipe handling in
applications with many recipes.
You can create 32 different recipe directories (or eight with DOP11A-10) in one level.
Recipe directories are created in the recipe library [RECIPE] in the root library of the
terminal memory. A recipe directory is linked with one or several blocks in the block
header of a block. All recipes created in a block are stored in the selected recipe
directory.
You can create, edit, and delete a recipe directory in HMI-Builder under [Setup] / [Recipe
settings]. Defined recipe directories are displayed in a list that corresponds to the library
structure. You can add a new recipe directory by clicking the [Add directory] button. The
name of a recipe directory can have up to eight characters. The first character must be
a letter or a number. Permitted characters for the name are A-Z, 0-9 and _ (underscore).
The same file name conventions apply as for MS-DOS.
To make modifications to a recipe directory, select it and click [Edit]. Clicking [Delete]
deletes the selected recipe directory.
Recipe directories
in run mode
You can create and delete recipe directories in run mode using the [Create recipe directory]
and [Delete recipe directory] functions. The functions are linked with function keys
or touch keys.
You can modify and select recipe directories for the current block in run mode using the
[Change recipe settings] function for function keys or touch keys. Pressing the function
key or touch key for [Change recipe directory] opens a pick-list with available recipe directories.
Select a file and press the Enter key. The recipes in the block are then stored
in the selected recipe directory. See chapter 8.10 Function keys".
Recipe directories created in HMI-Builder cannot be deleted using the function or touch
key linked with the [Delete recipe directory] function. Recipe directories created in the
terminal are not included in the terminal project when a project is transferred from the
terminal to HMI-Builder (via receive function in the [Project transfer] dialog).
Recipe handling between terminal and PC takes place using the applications [DOP
Tools] / [DOP File Transfer] and [DOP Tools] / [DOP FTP Transfer]. See section "Using
recipes in the PC" on page 190.
