You can adjust the size of the Decrement Value Button and format its
foreground color, background color, button margins (touch screen
applications only), border style, fill style, and blink attributes. If you
choose the Show Numeric Display option you can also format the
display’s font style and underline 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.
Note: If you use the Extra Large Font, the application will be
compatible only with PanelView Firmware Version 2 or later. The
application will not be compatible with earlier versions.
Note: If you use the Tiny Font or the Very Tiny Font, the
application will be compatible only with PanelView Version 5 or
later. The application will not be compatible with earlier versions.
The Numeric Data Display object allows the operator to monitor a
PLC process. This object displays PLC values such as temperature,
level, and speed.
Depending on how you configure the Numeric Data Display object,
it can display a decimal point and a minus sign.
Tip: Use Numeric Data Displays with other objects. For example,
include a Numeric Keypad (for touch screen terminals), or a
Numeric Keypad Enable Button (for keypad terminals) on the same
screen as a Numeric Data Display. Assign the same Control to both
objects so the display can show the control’s current value as entered
by the input object.
Important: The Numeric Data Display does not retain its value
when power is switched off and on.
The following examples show how the Numeric Data Display works.
They illustrate how the Decimal Display and polarity options affect
the way numbers are displayed.
