Through the project parameters

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The primary placement of the assignments is in the Term./conn. tab of the project parameters. To access them that way, in the Projects Module, right-click the project in question and select Properties. Then select the Term./conn. tab.

 

As a good example, please check this in the Demo IEC1355 English project, which is found in the IEC1082 group under Samples in the tree structure. That project has a complete assignment.

 

You will find the assignment in the upper right corner of the tab in question, as shown in the figure below.

The right-most column – Base – concerns so-called “base terminal groups”, which are not in use in current versions of cadett ELSA. In other words, that column is not used and should be ignored.

 

        New rows in the assignment table can be inserted using the Add button.

        Rows in the table can be removed using the Delete button.

 

After you have clicked the Add button, you must enter a Terminal group name in the first column. Please note that you can do that in two separate syntaxes that are described in the Syntax for terminal group names topic.

 

As the second step, you must select a Numbering algorithm. When you move the cursor to the Algorithm column, a drop-down list with all available algorithms is immediately displayed. You do not need to click. It is enough to hover above the column in question. Please refer to the figure below, which shows you have that looks. Double-click the algorithm that you want to use.

As the third step, you must specify the Limit. You do that in the Limit field to the right of the Delete button. Please refer to the figure below.

If you would like to change something in an existing table, you do that by double-clicking the row that you want to edit and then use the same operations as for new rows, like they are described above.

 

Finally, you can specify a Default numbering algorithm below the table. That is a numbering algorithm that should be used for all terminal groups that are not included in the table. A Limit for them is specified to the right.
