Backslash in Studio5k Structured Text

Taylor Turner · Jul 8, 2022

What does the backslash and a selected program do in 5k st?
I though it was a getter/setter for another program's local tags, much like # in siemens, but it is not.

If you set the local tags 'Usage' to 'Public', they are accessible via the \program. notation.

Awesome! missed the public usage.
One step closer to encapsulated IEC 61131-3.. yay.

Don't hold your breath.

Rockwell already claims to be 61131-3 compliant LOL. (In other words they are big fat liars)
