COMMENT
Use the COMMENT function to enter a comment (rung explanation) in the program. A comment
can have up to 2048 characters of text. It is represented in the ladder logic like this:
(* COMMENT *)
The text can be read or edited by moving the cursor to (* COMMENT *) after accepting the rung
and selecting Zoom (F10). Comment text can also be printed.
Longer text can be included in printouts using an annotation text file, as described below:
1. Create the comment:
A. Enter text to the point where the text from the other file should begin.
B. Move the cursor to the beginning of a new line and enter \I or \i, the drive followed by a
colon, the subdirectory or folder, and the file name, as shown in this example:
\I d:\text\commnt1
The drive designation is not necessary if the file is located on the same drive as the
program folder.
C. Continue editing the program, or exit to MS-DOS.
2. After exiting the programmer, create a text file using any MS-DOS compatible software
package. Give the file the file name entered in the comment, and place it on the drive specified
in the comment.
