Attributes
Extended Description Text

Instruction Help Preview
See a preview of the instruction help that is available if you press the [F1] key or click the Help button from the instruction browser (read-only).
Logic
Click to open the Logic routine. This Logic button is not visible if the Add-On Instruction is source-protected.
Data Type Size
Displays the size of the Add-On Instruction data type – this does include the size of any Local Tags (even though Local Tags are not visible when an instance tag of this data type is expanded in the Tag Editor or Data Monitor), but it does not include logic size. The size is automatically updated when you apply the instruction, not as you create the Parameters and Local Tags.
