What does this module do?

This was built because I had to make a module that would search through an NVX system that had 500 sources...

The Module is structured this way:

TYPE	INPUT VAR	OUTPUT VAR	TYPE
STRING	Search$	Search_FB$	STRING
DIGITAL	Source[001-500]VIS_IN	Source[001-500]VIS_OUT	DIGITAL
STRING	Source[001-500]Text$

How it works...

I tied "Search$" to the TextEntry smart graphic on my touch panel.

1. For every change of Search$, the module will perform a FOR loop to check each Source[X]Text$, however, it will only check the source text of sources that are also Enabled via Source[X] VIS_IN.
2. If there is a match then Source[X]VIS_OUT goes high.
3. When the length of Search$ is 0, then Source[X]VIS_OUT is set equal to Source[X]VIS_IN.

I wanted to make this a C# module, but not sure how to do that right now. If you know of a solution let me know in This Discussions

Enjoy!
