Project list
The
Project list
contains all saved projects. The project file extension is
.NQP
.
Creating or opening a project will show the root folders described below.
Screens
The
Screens
folder contains one base screen and four predefined keypad
screens that can be used in the project. For every screen the following parts
can be configured:
• Layout: graphical representation of the screen
• Keys: function keys used in this screen
• Tasks: assigned tasks to the screen
• Password: a password can be assigned to pages that must be entered
before the page can be accessed.
Keypad screens and screens numbered 65000 and higher are assigned as
pop up screens. If a new popup screen is added to the project the screen will
be located here.
Functions that can not be assigned to pop up screens are:
• Goto next screen
• Goto previous screen
• Open popup screen (it is not allowed to chain pop up screens)
• Data entry objects
• All objects configured to PLC tags
• Password protection
Templates
The
Templates
folder contains the created template screens. Template
screens are screens that can be added to a base screen. Template screens
are always placed behind the base screen. These screens usually contain
keys, buttons or background images that are used frequently in the project.
Following objects can not be assigned or are conditional to template screens:
• Data Entry on PLC tags
• Keypads placed on template screens act on numerical input of the base
screen
• Screen tasks ( Before showing, while showing, after hiding tasks)
• Key specific tasks
• Objects related to PLC tags
• Passwords
Using templates will also positively influence the usage of the memory and
reduce the programming time. (You re-use screens that you have
programmed before and assign them to different base screens).
To add a template proceed as follows:
• Click on
ADD Templates
(
