OPERATOR INTERFACE






Preface


To be effective in a small (5.7” P/PC size) footprint, the operator interface must be ergonomically
pleasing and comfortable to the user. While this may seem to be a fairly easy goal to achieve with
today's well accepted Menu Bar interfaces, a number of elements come into play with a process
controller-based environment that must be brought into proper relationship with the operator-elements
such as instant alarm access, prevention of accidental value entry, value setting accuracy, etc.

The HMI-6200 display architecture is flexible, yet clean and simple in appearance and interacts with
every application in the same manner. The windows, menus, etc. are consistent looking and behaving.

The prompting and pre-formatted type display hides the complex window access procedure and
simplifies operation to a point where a virtually untrained person can easily navigate between displays.
It provides an intuitive means of interacting with the process.

The touch screen provides for simple operator interaction. Direct touch or a pen (stylus) are used for
contact with the screen.

For lager size touch panel computers (12.1, 15 ..etc inch screen size) several displays can be grouped
on each screen. The screen grouping is accomplished by right-clicking the Group Screen on the Screen
menu of the WEB Studio software.
