Create data points during paste:
Set the behavior of the configuration software
when objects are pasted from a different project and not all of the referenced data
points can be found in the destination project. Missing data points can either be
created automatically as needed (classic behavior), not created at all (will break
the reference in the pasted object), or the user can be asked what to do (new
default behavior).
Keypad Button Size:
Specifies the desired size of the keypad buttons on the
display (width x height) in millimeters.
11.2.3 System Colors
This section is used to adjust the general system colors. They will be used on the device by
elements which are created dynamically, for example the keypad, and will be used by the
configuration software as default colors for new objects when no other defaults are set by
the user (using the button
Set as Default
) on the
Common Properties
page.
11.2.4 Unit System
This section is used to set the unit system to use for engineering the project. It influences
the unit in which default values, limit values, COV increment, or other data point properties
specified in data point units, are displayed and entered in the configuration software. The
effective unit is also reflected in the LCD preview, when numeric controls display the unit
of the connected data point.
If the option
Set unit system
is set, the device will take over the configured unit system
setting whenever the project is downloaded to the device. Otherwise, the unit system
selected for project engineering is independent of the unit system selected on a specific
device for operation. The setting can be changed on the Web interface of the device, via a
system register, or on the device commands page of the built-in setup menu.
11.2.5 Time Zone and DST
At the bottom of the page, a checkbox can be set to enable automatic control of the UTC
offset, based on a region selected from the dropdown list. If enabled, the device will
automatically control the UTC offset register and also automatically switch between
standard time and daylight saving time, if applicable for the selected region.
11.3 Localization
This page is available in projects for LWEB and for LVIS-3ME devices. It contains options
and settings related to project localization. There is currently one option, which was moved
from the
Extended Settings
page to the new
Localization
page:
Support complex writing systems:
This option enables support for complex
writing systems such as Arabic, Devanagari, Bengali, Thai, Hebrew and many
others belonging to the family of Abjad or Abugida scripts. These scripts are
often bidirectional and require complex text shaping and layout engines to
display correctly. It is available as an option for LVIS-3MEx devices and always
turned on for LWEB-80x projects. Note that this option will also improve text
layout in western scripts by using ligatures and other advanced layout features, as
far as provided by the font. If an existing project is converted to the new layout
engine by turning on this option, the project must be re-checked for possible
problems due to changes in text layout.
Following the options is a section to define the default locale of the project after download:
Language:
Select the desired language of the project from a list of more than
190 available languages.
