I need to modify the default switch(round two position selector) so that the off position is on and on position is off. The switch is overlayed on a bitmap of an old operator terminal so changing the layout is out of the question. I could change the PLC program but this would confuse maintenance. Is this possible to edit a default switch. Thank you, dr

You can't change the output of the switch to be inverted, but you could just change the button appearances so that it's inverted. So the "Off Text " will be ON with a green background color, and the "On Text " will be OFF with a grey or red background color.

I do not display the text, the switch position is in relation to a bitmap and that bitmap cannot be changed. I will just use an xor and hopefully that will not cause to much confusion for the maint men. thanks dr
