Renaming inputs and outputs
If you open your device (box) in the TwinCAT tree view, the contained terms are listed. Within these terms are channels with the inputs and outputs they contain. These are operating elements and LEDs. For better orientation, rename the inputs and outputs according to their function. The following table assigns the inputs and outputs to their functions:
