23 Control Selectors
Publication 2711E-6.15 – November 1998
You can adjust the size of each component of the Control List
Selector with Enter Key and format the object’s foreground color,
background color, font style, button margins (touch screen
applications only), border style, fill style, and blink attributes. For
details on formatting objects see “Changing Object Appearance” in
Chapter 9, Creating Objects, in the PanelBuilder 1400e
Configuration Software for Windows User Manual.
Unlike the Control List Selector with Enter Key, the selections in the
Control List Selector without Enter Key list are highlighted and sent
to the PLC as the operator moves the cursor to each item.
The number of items in this list is determined by the size of the list
component. For information on changing the size of the list
component, see Chapter 9, Creating Objects, in the PanelBuilder
1400e Configuration Software for Windows User Manual.
The Control List Selector without Enter Key consists of these
components:
This component Does this
Selector List This vertical list can have up to 24 different states (each list
item represents a state). With Double High or Large Font,
the list can contain 12 states.
Up Cursor Button When the operator presses the Up Cursor button, the
arrow in the list moves up by one list entry. If the Down
Cursor button is enabled, you can disable the Up Cursor
button. Only one of the Up and Down Cursor buttons
needs to be enabled.
The Up Cursor button auto-repeats at the rate specified in
the Configure Control List Selector dialog box.
Down Cursor Button When the operator presses the Down Cursor button, the
arrow in the list moves down by one list entry. If the Up
Cursor button is enabled, you can disable the Down
Cursor button. Only one of the Up and Down Cursor
buttons needs to be enabled.
The Down Cursor button auto-repeats at the rate specified
in the Configure Control List Selector dialog box.
Tip: Build a simple two-position Control List Selector and include
only the Down Cursor button. Functionally, the result is the same as
a Maintained Push Button or a hard-wired, two-position selector
switch. However, you also have a two-position list with the current
selection highlighted.
