Run Menu

The Start App menu item performs the steps to run the application on the controller.

The green play button does the same thing:

Based on what design elements have been chosen additional software components are included along with block and text descriptions of the application. The application is compiled into native object code that directly runs on the controller processor. Communication links are established for the various Windows controls that may be part of a Console described HMI.

If a block related problem occurs during compilation the block is highlighted in yellow.

Grabbing the block or hovering of a selection list in the block should clear the color back to normal.

In this particular example a variable named "Counter" had been assigned but subsequently deleted so the name no longer had any meaning.
