Chapter 7
Creating Custom Runtime Displays
7 – 22
This section discusses how to define Graph viewports. Graph viewports
provide the capability to display in real time, and in graph form, the results
from gages, windows, and/or formulas.
Graph viewport contents are
displayed during run mode in a bordered area, for which the border,
background, and graph colors are user-defined.
For each Graph viewport you create, you can define up to three “variables,”
that is, three different graph lines. A “variable” represents the numerical
results of a specific gage, window or formula that you select. These results
are plotted in the
Graph viewport within a range you define.
Figure 7.21 shows a typical example of a Graph viewport displayed during
run mode, which is shown plotting two variables (the results of windows 1
and 2, in this case) within the range of 0-63.
