Context-Sensitive Linking

Context-sensitive linking between the help project topics and user-defined libraries

(with data types, function block types and control module types), and components of externally added applications, in Project Explorer is done by A keyword linking.

Project Explorer objects should have their exact names specified as an A keyword in the corresponding topic. An A keyword is a non-language-dependent text string, sent from Control Builder (at an F1 call) to the online help system.

You must add the name of the object as an A keyword to the help topic describing the object. Control Builder uses the name of the currently selected item and tries to find a corresponding A keyword in the help system. If a call fails, the Control

Builder keyword is displayed under the Index Tab in the HTML Help Viewer.

Appendix B Library Objects Overview

This section gives an overview of all library objects, such as data types, functions, function block types, and control module types that can be used in applications created using the Control Builder engineering tool. Refer to the appropriate manuals and Control Builder online help for detailed descriptions of the libraries.

Almost all library types are protected. This means that the types cannot be copied to your own library and then modified. To determine if a library object is protected, select the object in the Project Explorer and then try to copy it. If the object is dimmed, it is protected.

In the following tables, the columns named “TC” (time-critical) and “SIL” (Safety

Integrity Level), shall be interpreted as follows:

“Y” (Yes) in column “TC” means that the function block / control module type can be used in time-critical tasks. If not, there is an “N” (No) in the column.

“1-2” in column “SIL” means that the function block / control module type is SIL 1-

2 classified and can be used in SIL 1-2 applications. Otherwise, there is an “N” (No) in the column.

Note that time-critical tasks are not allowed in SIL classified applications.
