Terminals

Screen Print Button allows an operator to print any screen currently
displayed on the PanelView 1200 terminal.
Local Message Display can be defined as a rectangular area of any size,
and placed in any location on the PanelView 1200 terminal screen. A
PLC control address is assigned to the object, allowing the PLC
controller to trigger any one of up to 875 messages to appear in this
area.
ASCII Display is used to display a character string, sent from the PLC
controller, directly on the PanelView 1200 terminal. The display is
updated whenever the string changes.
Text is used for screen titles, to provide instructions, or for any text that
is not bound to an object.
Lines (Horizontal, vertical and diagonal) are used to illustrate, and to
separate sections of screens.
Line Arrows are used to illustrate.
Line Connect Characters are used to connect lines and lines and
objects.
Boxes are graphic objects like lines, which can surround other objects or
simply illustrate.
Arcs are used to illustrate quarter, semi, and three quarter circles, as
well as circles. They can also be used to connect line objects to form
rounded corners.
Circles are composed of four arcs. They are used to illustrate.
The following objects can be displayed only on a keypad terminal:
Numeric Input Cursor Point consists of a numeric display and a
cursor character. This object can be used to enter numbers into an array
of numeric fields similar to an array of thumb-wheel switches on a
control panel. This object has an associated PLC input address in which
the value is communicated to the PLC controller.
Numeric Keypad-Enable Button pops up the Numeric Entry
Scratchpad in which the operator can enter a number. The number is
then stored in the specified PLC input address.
Screen Keypad-Enable Button pops up the Numeric Entry Scratchpad
in which the operator can enter a screen number. The screen with that
number is displayed.
