Edit I/Os

In the I/O grid, you can edit the cells with white background right in the grid.

Edit in the grid

On the right side of the I/O grid, there are additional grids you can use to edit information easily by selecting one or more I/Os, and then dragging and dropping information from the additional grid to the I/O grid. For example, you can select several I/Os and then add I/O card, supply device, field device and/or field device part information for them by dragging them to the grid from the additional grids. You can view additional grid information by pointing the grid name with your mouse.

You can lock the auxiliary grid to the screen from its top right corner with the button.
