Using Station Detail displays

The ProcessLogix Server Station application includes pre-configured
Detail displays for the FIM, Link, device and fieldbus function blocks.
These displays are the default entries for the Point Detail Page
parameter on the Server Parameters tab of the configuration form.
Once you establish communications with a fieldbus H1 link you can
begin monitoring the status of any component that has been loaded as
part of a Control Strategy to a FIM with points registered in the
ProcessLogix Server. The Detail displays let you quickly view the
component’s current state, fault status, and pertinent configuration
data.

Figure 5.1 shows a sample FIM Detail display. The fieldbus Detail
displays feature links to related fieldbus component displays.

See the Operator’s Guide in Knowledge Builder for detailed
information about calling up, navigating, and viewing Station displays.
