Limits (Page 85) Limit value MIN, limit value MAX

The limit values are separated by a comma. Limits can be specified for types I, C and R
in decimal formats or as characters in the form "A", "F".
Optionally, two signal colors SC1 and SC2 can be configured for the display of a progress
bar with color change (variable attribute DT = 1) which are displayed as the respective
foreground color of the bar when the signal value SVAL1 or SVAL2 is exceeded. The
signal values are specified as integer values.
See application example for Progress bar (Page 89).
Default setting (Page 103) If no default setting has been configured and no system or user variable has been assigned
to the variable, the first element of the toggle field is assigned. If no toggle field has been
defined, there is no default setting, which means the status of the variable is "not calcu‐
lated".
Default setting: No default
Toggle field (Page 101) List with predetermined entries in the IO field: The list is initiated by a *; the entries are
separated by a comma. The entries can be assigned a value.
For the toggle field, the entry for the limit is interpreted as a list. If only one * is entered,
a variable toggle field is created.
