Can you do online edits like inserting or deleting rungs? -
"Yes, online edits are available for your PLC, press Ctrl+E to begin online edit for the rung/s you want to edit, rungs must be selected. The looks of if may be different compare to AB. It doesn't create a test rung, you edit on the same rung and press Ctrl_Shift+E to send the changes you made. There are icons for the above as well as cancel online edits.
can you also add / delete / change contacts and i/o ? -
yes, you can do all the above. There are short cuts for those as well. look under the tools- Keyboard mapping.
To add a xic on a empty rung, or space, press 'c', press '/' for xio. To change an XIC to XIO, focus on the contact and press '/', and vice-versa to remove it. Adding branches is different compared to AB. From the place you want to add branch, press 'v' to drop a line, press it multiple times if it goes more depth. Highlight the branch and press v again to delete the branch. Take note on the left power rail no branch is necessary, each branch connect to the power rail directly. All the above can be done thru icons itself, but I find it cumbersome. So learn the shortcuts and start using it to get to the speed.
