French PcVue: “5244, Mode INCLUDE.DAT”
English PcVue: “5245, INCLUDE.DAT mode”

Explanation

For a PcVue project, you can generate the list of variables or actions, such as events or cyclics, with an external tool such as Microsoft Excel. Create the list of variables and actions in files, and place these files in the c1 folder of your project.

INCLUDE.DAT is a file which contains a list of the files in the c1 directory.

Example

Your PcVue project contains a file INCLUDE.DAT in the c1 folder with the following line :

VARIABLE.DAT
EV.DAT

The files indicated in the INCLUDE.DAT list are loaded when starting PcVue. For example, VARIABLE.DAT contains a list of variables. These variables are added to the variable list. Any modification made to these variables when running the project in PcVue is not taken into account. Each time you restart the project, the files in c1 will be loaded, and all modifications in previous runs of the project will be ignored.

The message “INCLUDE.DAT mode” indicates that an INCLUDE.DAT file has been found in your project.
