Word Reverse This affects four byte values only (REAL, DINT, UDINT). Some devices store the LOW WORD and HIGH WORD in reverse order (from a Modicon PLC). This will reverse them so they are displayed correctly in CIMPLICITY.
Cache Disable By default, CIMPLICITY caches continuous addresses into a cache group. It then performs a single read on the group. Some devices will not allow this kind of group read. When caching is disabled, each point is read individually from the device. Note that in projects with large point counts, this can significantly affect performance.
OK Saves the values in the file \\site_root:data\master_ port .ini, which is then read by the device communication interface the next time it is started.
Cancel Closes the device dialog box without any modification.
