Editing a recipe from a recipegroup

Recipes from a recipegroup are edited in the dialog Recipegroups

General entries:

Rrecipe number	Number of the recipe
Sync. write	Active: During writing the recipe all buttons are greyed in the picture of the recipe group manager, until the driver confirms, that all values have been written successfully, or the defined `Waiting time` passed. At synchronous execution the control elements are blocked until the writing progress is finished. Inactive: The values of the recipe are written without waiting for a confirmation. The buttons can be used immediately. The confirmation of the driver is done with the status bit `WR-SUC`, which is set to 1, when values have been written successfully. This setting can be changed in the Runtime in the picture of the Recipegroup Manager with the button `Rename recipe`.
Standby time [ms]	If `Write Sync.` is activated in a recipe, the timeout can be defined here. The buttons of the picture recipe group manager can be operated at the longest after that time. If in `Waiting time` the value 0 is entered, zenon calculates the timeout in the following way: 3000+(100*number of datapoints) This setting can be changed in the Runtime in the picture of the Recipegroup Manager with the button `Rename recipe`.
Authorization groups	Only users with the authorisation group entered here are allowed to change the recipe in the Runtime. This not only means manually editing the recipe in the picture of the recipe group manager but also renaming and deleting the recipe as well as reading its values from the hardware. Additionally recipe groups can only be changed by users, which have the authorisation for all recipes of the according group.

Entry in the list (cannot be changed)

PV	Name of a process variable
Unit	Unit of a process variable

Entry in the list (Changes have an impact on the recipe group.)

min	Minimum value of variable
max	Maximum value of variable

Modifiable entries for recipes in list: (has an impact on the processed recipe)

Action	Function to be executed with the variable
Source	Value to be handled by the function

The columns for PV, min, max and unit in the upper illustration only serve as information and cannot be changed in this dialogbox.

Action:

Action	Source
No action	No entry Deactivates a variable in this recipe
Switch to spontaneous value	No entry Switches from substitute to spontaneous value
Modify spontaneous value	Enter set value Sets the spontaneous value to the value stated under source
Switch to and modify spontaneous value	Enter set value Switches from substitute to spontaneous value and sets the spontaneous value to the value stated under source
Switch to alternate value	No entry Switches from substitute to spontaneous value
Modify alternate value	Enter alternate value Sets the alternate value to the value stated under source
Switch to and modify alternate value	Enter alternate value Switches from spontaneous to substitute value and sets the substitute value to the value stated under source
Switch off spontaneous value	Source: none
Switch on spontaneous value	Source: none
User status	Status information Sets the according status bit of the variable
Connect with PV	Name of a process variable ?The value of the variable is set to the current value of the variable stated under source? A click with the right mouse button opens a context menu, with the command `PVs` the variables list is opened from which the source variable can be selected It is also possible to use variables of other loaded projects as source variables.

Attention

If the function 'Read all values' is used for a recipe with the action 'Link to PV', no user rights are asked for and the action is not logged. If logging is required, it has to be made manually. E.g. with a VBA macro. As a consequence, this functionality cannot be used for projects with a strict FDA standard.
