FAQ
 When using Text Table for alarm messages, is it possible to edit messages in spread sheet software  such as Microsoft Excel?

You can export a list of alarm messages with a text table in a CSV file format, edit them in Microsoft Excel and then import them.

IMPORTANT
- For exporting or importing alarm messages with a text table used, GP-Pro EX Ver. 2.7 or later is required.

- If alarm settings with a text table used are imported, contents that have been already registered in the text table will be overwritten. Please be aware of it.
