154 = **Recipe** =
155
156 Traditional recipe is composed of multiple groups of information with the same structure and different data. Due to the similarity of these information, you could edit them into a set of recipes to facilitate the transfer of data between HMI and PLC.
157
158 Data operation
159
160 1. **Read:** Read a group of data from the recipe file and assign the group of data to the set address.
161 1. **Write: **Read a group of data from the set address and assign the group of data to the corresponding recipe file.
162
163 PI Series HMI has Recipe function, Recipe function keeps data in the HMI, used to download the data from HMI to designated device addresses, or upload the data from device addresses to HMI.
164
165 The maximum number of group in recipe is 1000, and the maximum number of member in each group is 1500.
166
167 Recipe could store the data in USB flash disk and SD card and view the recipe data by object "Recipe display". It has two mode: simple mode and advanced mode.
168
169 1. **Simple: **Only support the data operation of one recipe file, including read and write.
170 1. **Advanced:** Support the data operation of multiple recipe files, including read, write, insert and index. View and select recipe file by object "File list".

179 **Basic**
180
181 * **Recipe Folder:** Give Recipe folder name (It can be used, when setting Recipe display object);
182 ** **✎Note: **Recipe Folder name can only consist of (0~~9), (a~~z), (A~~Z), ('_'), (' ') and other non-English characters;
183 * **Group: **Set the recipe group number, the number of elements, the data format. The data format has 8 modes: 16-bit signed decimal, 16-bit unsigned decimal, 16-bit BCD, 32-bit signed decimal, 32-bit unsigned decimal, 16-bit BCD, 32-bit floating point number, 64-bit (double-precision) floating-point number, string, and the choice of data integer and decimal places.
184 * **Elements:** It sets members' initial number of each group;
185 * **Data Format:** There are some formats can be supported in Recipe, like 16-bit BCD, 16-bit signed, 16-bit unsigned, 32-bit BCD, 32-bit signed, 32-bit unsigned, 32-bit floating and string. If each member requires different formats, please set it one by one in form;
186 * **Decimal: **It sets integer and scale digits;
187
188 **Mode Selection: **Select Simple or Advanced mode. Recipe file is divided into simple mode and advanced mode. Only in advanced mode can exist multiple recipe files used at the same time. (used wiht file list onject), Simple mode can only support a recipe file; Aadvanced mode can insert group information and reordered.
189
190 Function address: all operations are done through function addresses, different operating value is as follows:
191
192 * = 0: no operation;
193 * = 1: trigger read data;
194 * = 2: new trigger or update (If there is group number, it updates.)
195 * = 4: insert (only valid in advanced mode)
196 * = 8: delete (Delete according to the writing group number. If write and read address are consistent, refer to the reading group number);
197 * = 16: delete and sorted ((Delete according to the writing group number. If write and read address are consistent, refer to the reading group number)
198 * = 64: import CSV recipe file.
199
200 **Use Multiple File**
201
202 Check it to use more than one recipe file in HMI, but this option only valid in [Advanced mode];
203
204 **Select language**
205
206 The text in HMI can be in 8 languages, user can set language in here;

211 1. **Start: **This is starting address is for reading and writing in recipe, PIStudio will automatically assigns addresses for each members;
212 1. **File(16 words): **This address only available when enable the Use Multiple File. This setting address is for input the recipe file's filename.
213
214 **Use Index**
215
216 If the value from Group address is changed, Read address will display the new data according to new group number immediately. Relatively, if the data of write address is changed, the corresponding group from table is also changed.
217
218 **Query by Element**
219
220 Enable it for querying group by specify element, select a primary key from all the elements, except the group number. This element value from all groups must be unique if want to set as primary key;

318
319 The recipe index address RPW is mainly used for editing traditional recipes, and it is more convenient to modify the data and display of recipes. Only need to modify and display the data of the recipe file through "Numeric Input/Display" Object and "Word Switch".
320
321 The recipe index area (RPW)'s instruction as follows:
322
323 1. RPW~*~*~#~#~#~#, a total of six digits, the first two ~*~* represent the Recipe group number, ~#~#~#~# represents the element order number. For example, RPW010000 indicates the 1st element of the Recipe group No.1, and RPW110002 indicates the 3rd element of the Recipe group No.11.
324 1. If the indexed group number or element number does not exist, the value of RPW defaults to zero. For example, RPW110011 represents the 12th element of the Recipe group No.11. If it does not exist, the value returned by accessing RPW110011 is zero. The value written in RPW110011 will not be saved to the recipe file.
325
326 * **✎Note**: As long as RPW~*~*~#~#~#~# exists, any object "writes" to HPW~*~*~#~#~#~# will be saved to the recipe file. 
327
328 (% start="3" %)
329 1. The RPW register only supports word address access.
330 1. It can be known from the coding method of RPW~*~*~#~#~#~# that the range of RPW is from RPW000000-RPW990450, wherein the range of group number is 0-100, and the range of element is 0-450.
331
332 == Recipe example ==
333
334 The recipe index makes the modification and display of recipe data more convenient. Only need to modify and display the data of the recipe file through "Numeric Input/Display" Object and "Word Switch".
