Adding the Inline library
All of the physical and logical components of your application are mapped in the form of a hierarchical tree structure in the PLANT area.
To add Inline modules, you first need to insert the Inline library within the COMPONENTS area:
- In the COMPONENTS area, open the Libraries (x) section.
- Right-click Libraries (x).
- From the context menu, select Add Library....
- In the file explorer that opens, select the Inline library.
- Click the Open button.
The Inline library is now displayed in the Libraries (x) section in the COMPONENTS area. You can now use the role picker to add the Inline modules contained in the library to your application.
Role picker: Adding Inline modules
To add the Inline modules, proceed as follows:
- In the PLANT area, double-click the AXC F IL ADAPT / AXC F XT IB (x) node.
The editor group for the AXC F IL ADAPT / AXC F XT IB (x) Inline adapter terminal opens.
- Select the Device List editor.
- Select Select type here in the first row of the Device List editor.
The role picker opens. Only those elements from the COMPONENTS area that you can actually use are displayed in the role picker.
