You can write literal values to On Entry or On Exit outputs for any step in the step program. These values are specified in the output matrix.
To assign a literal value to a step as output value in the output matrix
-
Select the Step Program tab. The Step Program panel appears.
-
Locate the cell you need to place the output value at, which is a combination of:
-
the step for which you want to assign the output value
-
the Alias which references the attribute you want to write to
-
On Entry or On Exit, depending if you want the output value to be written when the step becomes active or when the step or jump condition is fulfilled
-
-
Select the located cell, enter the output value and press Enter.

Important: String, date time or elapsed time data type values need to be enclosed with double quotes ("). Otherwise, they are interpreted as Aliases.
