Defining signal groups in the SC editor

You can open the SC editor to define signal groups for the following SC types:

  • Fixed time
  • Epics/Balance Local

For signal controllers of the type Siemens VA, TRENDS, VAP and VS Plus, you do not define signal groups in the SC editor (Defining signal groups for Siemens VA, VAP, VS-Plus).

1.  Open the SC Editor (Opening and using the SC Editor).

2.  In the Navigator, click Signal groups.

The signal groups list opens.

If no signal group has been defined yet, only the column titles are displayed.

3.  Right-click in the list.

The shortcut menu opens.

4.  Click the desired entry.
