Command Export All

Symbol:

Function: The command exports all text lists of the project.

Call: Menu Textlist, context menu

Requirement:

• A text list or a global text list is open and active.
• The visualization does not encode the text characters in Unicode.

For each text list TwinCAT creates a file as plain text in .txt format. The name of text list becomes the name of the file. The file is saved in the directory of the TwinCAT project.

A controller can read and use this format. You can copy the file to a controller, for example, and configure it via a setting in the Visualization Manager, such that the text lists are not transferred again when the PLC project is loaded.
