10. Click OK to accept the properties settings. On the main screen of EasyBuilder you will see a white rectangle

outline that is attached to your cursor in the work area. Click to place the Bargraph Object in the middle of
Window 11. You can click and drag it to adjust its position once you have placed it on the window.

Next we will create a pushbutton to raise the level of the tank and another one to lower the level of the tank. This will
use the Set Word Object to increment and decrement the value in LW0, the register that the bargraph is monitoring.

To create a Set Word:

1. In the top menu bar in EasyBuilder 5000, click Objects > Button > Set Word (or select the Set Word icon in

the Object 1 Toolbar).

2. In the Set Word Object’s Properties General tab, you can enter a description of the object such as “Tank

Level Up.” Select LW for the Device Type and 0 for the Write address. Leave the numeric format set to the
default 16-bit unsigned.
