Rename a Variable on a Function Block Diagram

   A context sensitive menu is displayed.

   

2. Select the Rename option.
   The name of the variable is selected. You can alter or overwrite the name as required—simply use the keyboard to enter the new name for the variable.
3. Press the Enter key or select another part of the interface to confirm the name entry.
