Abstract
When the drafting operation with a display drafting apparatus and the generating operation with a control program schema generator proceed concurrently or separately, a step of temporarily storing the device of interest for display can be omitted to enhance the drafting efficiency. Conventionally, drafting the display was conducted in such a way as to temporarily store (memorize, or store with the file) a device of a controller for use, set up the specifications of the display at steps of selecting a display component, selecting display mode and function, and then call back the temporarily stored device to perform the operation of selecting the device symbol and number. This invention starts with the selection of a desired device, as such, there is no need of the temporary storage, resulting in enhanced drafting efficiency.
