<h2 id="addLogixNG">Add a LogixNG</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>To create a new LogixNG, click on the <strong>Add...</strong> button. The <strong>Add
|
|
LogixNG</strong> window will be displayed.</p>
|
|
|
|
<div style="margin-left: 2em">

"Add LogixNG"></a>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>The system name is required. The system name for a LogixNG always begins with the letters
|
|
<strong>IQ</strong>. If the entered name does not start with <strong>IQ</strong>, it will be
|
|
automatically added. The typical suffix is a number. If <strong>Automatically generate System
|
|
Name</strong> is checked, the system name format will be <strong>IQ:AUTO:nnnn</strong>. Any
|
|
other format requires adding a <strong>$</strong> (dollar) character between
|
|
<strong>IQ</strong> and the suffix.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The user name is optional but recommended. A user name may be any useful text, provided
|
|
the new user name was not previously assigned to another LogixNG. Once a LogixNG is created,
|
|
its system name cannot be changed. Its user name may be changed in either the LogixNG Table
|
|
or the Edit LogixNG window. The user name is usually used to provide a more descriptive name,
|
|
for example, "Signal 5 Control".</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>After clicking <strong>Create</strong>, the LogixNG will be created and the <a href=
|
|
"../logixng/LogixNGTableEditor.shtml">Edit LogixNG</a> window will appear.</p>
