Scrolling Lists

This chapter tells you about:

the different Scrolling List components

how to configure the components

The Scrolling List object allows you to define and view a list that is
bigger than the screen. The Scrolling List consists of a Cursor List
and one or more Object Lists. You can use the cursor buttons to
move through a maximum of 999 items within these object lists.
Each screen can have only one Cursor List. However, you can define
multiple object lists. These object lists include:

Multistate Indicator Object Lists

Local Message Object Lists

Numeric Data Display Object Lists

Important:

For the Scrolling List object to function, you must
group the Cursor List and all object lists on the screen.

The following illustration shows how a Scrolling List could appear:

Cursor List Buttons

The Scrolling List permits PLC output data to be multiplexed to the
PanelView terminal. This reduces the PLC ladder logic typically
needed to display and edit large amounts of data.
