Slider Object

The Slider Object is used as a control to change the value in a PLC register, or the value in a register in the HMI

local memory (LW), based on the position of the slide control. Low and High limits can be configured based on

constant values or on PLC/HMI register values, and the resolution of the slide control can be adjusted to

accommodate the range of values in the register. The position of the Slider will change if the register value is

changed by some other device.

Function Key

The Function Key Object is used to change windows, popup a window, return to a previous window, close a

window, or input data as part of a keypad. It can also be used to execute a macro or print the screen to a USB

flash drive, SD card, or printer.

Numeric Display

The Numeric Display Object is used to display the current value in a register. The value can be displayed as

BCD, Hex, Binary, or Decimal (signed or unsigned).

Numeric Input

The Numeric Input Object is used to display the current value in a register and to change the value in the

register using a popup numeric keypad (or external keyboard). The value can be displayed as BCD, Hex, Binary,

or Decimal (signed or unsigned). The Numeric Input has the option to read and write to different registers, to

set a notification bit when a value is entered, and to set a notification bit on an invalid (out-of-range) entry.

ASCII Display

The ASCII Display Object is used to display the value in one or more registers as text (ASCII characters or

Unicode characters). Up to 64 registers can be displayed.

ASCII Input

The ASCII Input Object is used to display the value in one or more registers as text (ASCII characters or Unicode

characters) and to change the value in the register using a popup ASCII (alphanumeric) keypad or external

keyboard. Up to 64 registers can be written to and displayed.

Indirect Window

The Indirect Window Object is used to display a window based on the value in a register (specified by the Read

Address). The window whose number appears in the register is displayed within the frame of the Indirect

Window. The Indirect Window Object should be the same size as the window(s) that are being displayed. If the

Indirect Window is too small, some information may not display properly.

The window is displayed as long as the value in the register contains the window number. Set the value to zero

(or to a window number that hasn’t been created) to clear the Indirect Window.
