Additionally export declarations as plain text

By default, CODESYS splits declaration parts into individual variables according to the PLCopenXML scheme, and therefore loses the formatting and some comment information.

: Formatting and comments are retained. CODESYS writes the plain text of the exported declaration part to the PLCopenXML file and therefore extends the PLCopenXML scheme.

Export folder structure

: CODESYS also exports the folders if they include one of the selected objects. That is a CODESYS-specific extension to the PLCopenXML scheme.

Table 164. PLCopenXML Import Settings

Import folder structure

: If the import file includes information about the folder structure of the object, then CODESYS also imports this structure.

: CODESYS imports objects without structure.
