2. Development method
It is recommended to perform this operation before initiating the PLC program as any addition or cancellation of a word in the dialog table modifies its structure.
Phase 5: Model pages
Identify the data which are identical on each type of pages: application, help, alarm.
This data can be:
- text, frames, logos, drawings, etc.,
- variables (alphanumeric and/or graphic),
- the status line and/or the alarm strip (displayed by default).
It is recommended to use the model pages for:
- simplifying and clarifying the development,
- providing an easy-to-use man/machine interface by the creation of similar “environments”,
- structuring the space available in the terminal memory.

Phase 6: Definition of application pages
NOTE
Create the application pages and then define navigation. It can be performed via:
- dynamic function keys: for a navigation organized in menus,
- static function keys: for direct access to a page of the structure.
Provide the necessary controls for access to the pages and variables available for entry (
see chapter D, "Confidential mode, password management", Page 18 , for all details). The zones protected by a
password can be configured in specific menus.
System pages linked with XBT-L1000 can be protected by a password, as the application pages.
