Slider Object
The Slider Object is used as a control to change the value in a PLC register, or the value in a register in the HMI
local memory (LW), based on the position of the slide control. Low and High limits can be configured based on
constant values or on PLC/HMI register values, and the resolution of the slide control can be adjusted to
accommodate the range of values in the register. The position of the Slider will change if the register value is
changed by some other device.
Function Key
The Function Key Object is used to change windows, popup a window, return to a previous window, close a
window, or input data as part of a keypad. It can also be used to execute a macro or print the screen to a USB
flash drive, SD card, or printer.
Numeric Display
The Numeric Display Object is used to display the current value in a register. The value can be displayed as
BCD, Hex, Binary, or Decimal (signed or unsigned).
Numeric Input
The Numeric Input Object is used to display the current value in a register and to change the value in the
register using a popup numeric keypad (or external keyboard). The value can be displayed as BCD, Hex, Binary,
or Decimal (signed or unsigned). The Numeric Input has the option to read and write to different registers, to
set a notification bit when a value is entered, and to set a notification bit on an invalid (out-of-range) entry.
ASCII Display
The ASCII Display Object is used to display the value in one or more registers as text (ASCII characters or
Unicode characters). Up to 64 registers can be displayed.
ASCII Input
The ASCII Input Object is used to display the value in one or more registers as text (ASCII characters or Unicode
characters) and to change the value in the register using a popup ASCII (alphanumeric) keypad or external
keyboard. Up to 64 registers can be written to and displayed.
Indirect Window
The Indirect Window Object is used to display a window based on the value in a register (specified by the Read
Address). The window whose number appears in the register is displayed within the frame of the Indirect
Window. The Indirect Window Object should be the same size as the window(s) that are being displayed. If the
Indirect Window is too small, some information may not display properly.
The window is displayed as long as the value in the register contains the window number. Set the value to zero
(or to a window number that hasn’t been created) to clear the Indirect Window.
