Us ing the Com mon Win dow
Your project might require that some data be displayed on the OIT screen at all times, regardless of which
window(s) are displayed. For example, you may want to display a company logo on the OIT screen at all times, or
you may want to display some critical data or an alarm message which should be seen no matter what windows are
displayed.
Using base windows to display this information requires that you configure every full screen base window with the
same graphics object. The common window however, is a predefined window in the OIT that you can enable to
display this information. When created, the common window always operates in the background as a full screen
window that overlays any full screen base window displayed.
Whenever you create a new project, the common window (Window #6) is automatically created.
