Properties
| Class Name | A unique name for this item. The class name is display only and cannot be changed. |
| Name | Enter a meaningful name for this Item so that you, and other people, will easily recognize what it is for. |
| Enabled | No - The ITEM is not enabled and will not update
when its TASK updates Yes - The ITEM is enabled and will update when its TASK updates. |
| Data to Output | Select an ITEM from the current TASK that has the data you wish to output. |
| Output Tag | Select the MicroScan Output Tag to which you wish to send the data. |
| Flags | Last In Stack - This is recommended and places
the request to output the data at the end of the MicroScan Interface stack. First In Stack - This option means that the request to output will go to the beginning of the MicroScan Interface stack and will be executed first. This option has the danger of slowing down communications for other programs using the MicroScan interface. |
| Remote Enable | Works in conjunction with the above master Enable. The Remote Enable can be used to temporarily disable this ITEM. First set this property to get the value of another ITEM. If the value of the ITEM is greater than zero then the output will not be disabled, if the value is equal to or smaller than zero then the output will be disabled. If nothing is selected then this property is ignored. |
