By specifying a virtual device/PLC (hereafter called "Indirect Device") in a part's address, you can change the part's display by changing the device/PLC at runtime. You can use indirect devices when connecting multiple devices that use the same driver and the equipment is part of the same series. With this ability to change the device/PLC information shown on the screen, you can reduce the drawing process and reduce the project size.
You can use the indirect device in address fields for parts or animation, and in the [Common Settings] menu's [Global D-Script] and [Global Functions].
You can add up to 64 indirect devices to a driver.
When using a LT3000 series, ST3000 series or GP3200 series unit, setting up indirect device reserves 1 MB of the screen area for this feature.
