Bars refer to the three bargraphs on the controller display. Up to four highlighted
segments may be defined, either by a constant value or by connection to another signal, in
addition to the bar itself.
Inputs are the values that will be shown on the front panel (either inputs from another
block or local constants), or values that will be written from the front panel to logic or
other functions.
Formats determine how variables will be displayed. Each display input must reference a
format. One format can be used for multiple inputs; for example, several inputs may have
a Line format with 2 decimal places.
Scripts are used to create key macros, access custom tuning lists, display multiple
messages in one area of the display, and manipulate data before displaying (e.g. calculate
compensated measurement for display only).
Many displays can be created without any scripting by simply using the menu entries.
Once all bars, inputs, formats and scripts have been defined, inputs are connected from
other blocks using one of the connection methods (e.g. multi-segment, right-angle, jump
point etc.).
