Creating Meter Displays
The Meter Display Object is used to represent the data in a 16-bit or 32-bit PLC register as a scaled meter. The meter
can be easily customized to the look that you want.
The Meter Display can be configured with any base number that represents 0 level and any span range.
To create a Meter Display Object:
1. From the Objects menu, click Meter Display, or click the Meter Display icon in the Object 2 toolbar. The New
Display Meter Object dialog box appears.
2. Use the Description: box to enter a title for the Meter Display object. A description is not necessary but does
help you identify the purpose of the part.
3. Click the Setting… button in the Read address frame. Select the Device type from the drop down menu, and
then specify the PLC register address. Select the data format.
4. Click the Outline tab. This is where you will configure all of the attributes of your meter.
