By default, one Operator Window automatically appears at system startup (when the Default account logs
in) or when a new user logs in, if no default CRT contexts (described in
Section 11.12, CRT Context Keys
)
have been defined for these accounts. Under these conditions, additional Operator Windows will not auto-
matically appear, but can be opened by the user.
It is possible to have up to four Operator Windows open simultaneously on a Micro-PWC.
, provides further information on the default arrangement of Operator Win-
dows. A user’s login account can be configured to automatically open up to four Operator Windows each
time that user logs in. The Operator Window can be maximized, closed and resized.
Because each Operator Window operates independently, a different process display can be run in each
Operator Window. For example, while Window 1 displays a Summary Page, Window 2 could display a
Graphic, Window 3 a Trend display, and Window #4 a Process Alarm display.
2.4.5.1 Operator Window Components
The Operator Window is composed of the three main window components: a title bar, a menu bar, and a
display area.
The title bar identifies the number of the Operator Window and type of process display, if any, running in
the window. At the left end of the title bar is a small square button (which contains a horizontal bar) known
as the Window Menu button, which provides access to the window control functions Move, Resize, and
Lower.
The menu bar provides the user with the following items:
•
Window
•
Maximize/Restore button
•
Select
•
Redraw (depends on display type)
•
Zoom (depends on display type)

Help
The Window option on the menu bar provides access to a cascading submenu of additional window control
functions, including Page Up, Page Down, Display Back, Display Forward, Acknowledge, and Close.
The Maximize/Restore option on the menu bar is used to change the size of the Operator Window. Click
this button to enlarge a small Operator Window to fill the entire display area below the System and Mini-
Alarm Windows. Click this button again to return the window to its previous size.
The Select option on the menu bar provides access to a cascading submenu of process interface features,
such as Graphics, Trends, Summaries, Points, Groups, Quick Keys, various Review displays, and the Sys-
tem Status Display. If the security level of the current operator does not allow access to an option, that
option is unavailable. (It is present, but appears in a lighter shade, and is said to be “stippled out”.
The Redraw option refreshes the Operator Window display.
The Zoom option allows you to resize the contents of the Operator Window without changing the size of
the window boundaries.
