132 Scrolling Lists
Publication 2711E-6.15 – November 1998
If the Cursor List is under PLC control, and the PLC sends a state
value for a skipped state to the terminal, the terminal treats the value
as invalid and removes the arrow cursor and highlight. An error
message appears. The terminal does not send a value to the Cursor
Indicator to PLC control. Nothing on the Cursor List is highlighted
until the PLC sends a value for a non-skipped state.
Note: If you use skipped states, the application will be compatible
only with PanelView Firmware Version 2 or later. The application
will not be compatible with earlier versions.
Configuring the Cursor List Buttons
The Scrolling List object supports several buttons that control the
cursor position of the Cursor List and of all the Object Lists. Specify
the buttons for the Scrolling List in the Cursor List object.
You can enable or disable any or all of the buttons, move them to
different locations on the screen, change their colors, and add labels
(text or bitmaps).
To configure the Cursor List Buttons, choose Edit Buttons in the
Configure Cursor List dialog box. Configure the Cursor List Buttons
according to the following table.
Field Meaning
Up Cursor Specify whether the Up Cursor button is enabled, and, if you have a
keypad application, select a function key.
Up Cursor moves the cursor to the previous non-skipped state in the
scrolling list. If the cursor is at the top-most or first position in the list,
or if all previous states are skipped states, pressing this button has
no effect.
Down Cursor Specify whether the Down Cursor button is enabled, and, if you have
a keypad application, select a function key.
Down Cursor moves the cursor to the next non-skipped state in the
scrolling list. If the cursor is at the bottom-most or last position in the
list, or if all remaining states are skipped states, pressing this button
has no effect.
Page Up Specify whether the Page Up button is enabled, and, if you have a
keypad application, select a function key.
Page Up scrolls up the list by the defined Number of Visible States.
The cursor is in the same position on the new page unless that
position is occupied by a skipped state. In that case, the cursor is
placed on the first non-skipped state on the new page. If no
non-skipped states appear on the page, PanelView scrolls another
Page Up until a non-skipped state is found. If the cursor is at the
top-most or first non-skipped position in the list, pressing this button
has no effect.
