  • The faceplate is callled using a routine that indirects @MOD@ with the name of the module provided as an argument. Modules are configured with their faceplate type, so when you create an open faceplate link using the open faceplate routine, it uses the module name argument to determine which faceplate file to open and to perform replacement of @MOD@.

    To change the faceplate to use different parameters, change the parameter path after @MOD@.

    I can't recall the routine name, but the open faceplate expert in operate will allow you to assign this routine to the click event on the selected object.
