Increment Value Button Data Types and Values
This data type: Supports this range of values:
Binary 0 - 65,535
BCD 0 - 99,999,999
Signed Integer 0 - 32,767
If the value is already at, or above the maximum, the value is not changed.
Auto-Repeat
If a button is pressed for more than the time specified by the button’s
Auto-Repeat Start Delay, the value automatically increases by the amount
specified by the Amount per Increment at the rate specified by the
Auto-Repeat Rate.
the Auto-Repeat rate may be set for 0 to 20 per second; auto-repeat is
disabled if the rate is set to 0
the Auto-Repeat Start Delay may be set for 0.2 to 2.5 seconds
the Amount per Increment is an integer value in a range of 1 to 10000;
the default is 1
IMPORTANT: If you change any of the Increment Value Button default
settings (4 per second Auto-Repeat Rate, 400 msec Auto-Repeat Start
Delay and an Amount per Increment of 1), the application file will only be
compatible with Version 2 and later PanelView firmware.
Often, Increment and Decrement buttons are used together to control the
same PLC address. Since the buttons don’t display the value of the address,
a Numeric Data Display could be used to display the value at the address
as it raises or lowers.
IMPORTANT: The Increment Value button is a retentive object. Your
PanelView terminal will retain the current PLC input address value even
after you’ve powered down the terminal or switched to Configuration
mode. Use PanelBuilder to define or change the preset value of this object.
Decrement Value Button
The Decrement Value Button decreases the value at the assigned PLC input
address each time the button is pressed. Use this object to allow an
operator to subtract a value from the current value by pressing the button.
You can set a lower limit for the PLC value, a positive integer, 0 to
99,999,999.
