Indicators

Publication 2711E-6.15 – November 1998

The List Indicator displays a list of states for a particular PLC
operation and highlights the current state.

The font size determines the maximum number of states possible in
the list. Small and Double Wide fonts allow up to 24 states; Double
High or Large fonts allow up to 12 states.

Note: List text can be in only one font size. The List Indicator
supports text labels only, not graphic image labels.

At runtime, the operator can see all the states for a particular
operation and see which state is current. The current state is
highlighted. The size of the list component determines the number of
states. For information on changing the font size, resizing the list,
and adding state text, see “Changing Object Appearance” in
Chapter 9, Creating Objects, in the PanelBuilder 1400e
Configuration Software for Windows User Manual.

The List Indicator is similar to the Control List Selector, except the
PLC, rather than the operator, controls the display.

You can configure the state values of List Indicator objects. At
runtime, the object highlights the state whose value matches the
Indicator State control’s value.

Note: If the Indicator State control contains a value that does not
match any of the List Indicator’s assigned state values, an error state
occurs and no state is highlighted. An error state also occurs if the
Indicator State control is not assigned. In this case also, no highlight
bar appears.
