Property Description of Multistate Indicator Element

Multistate indicator provides a method to indicate the state of some specific address. It will send state changes message to user no matter it is Bit, LSB or WORD. If this address is an significant indicator or important message or important alarm, it can be used to inform the user immediately by changing state display method or different text setting. Or let the user know more information according to the changes of different states to make the user can also handle the corresponding situation at the first time.

Read Address	The address can be internal memory or the controller address. (Please refer to
	Table 3.2.2 Property Description of General Buttons.)
	Table 3.2.2 Property Description of General Buttons.)

When the read address is set to the contact of the controller, i.e. PLC, the multistate indicator will change depending on the state (ON or OFF) of PLC corresponding contact. For example, the user can set that when the value is 1, the indicator will display the text “Start” and when the value is 0, the indicator will display the text “Stop”. The user also can add a picture into each state of the multistate indicator and then the corresponding picture will show when each state is activated.

Text / Text Size	The user can set the text, text size, font and text color that provided by Windows®
Font / Text Color	to determine the text display on the element. (Please refer to Table 3.2.2 Property
	Description of General Buttons.)
Twinkle	The element can twinkle to remind the user. (Please refer to Table 3.2.2 Property
	Description of General Buttons.)

Data Length	Bit	Indicator element can have two states.

Word	Indicator element can have 256 states.

	LSB	Indicator element can have 16 states.
Data Format	It provides BCD, Signed Decimal, Unsigned Decimal and Hex four kinds of data
	format to display the read memory content.
Add/Remove State	It is used to set the state numbers of multistate indicator. If the data length of the
	value is in Word, 1~256 states can be set. If the data length of the value is in LSB,
	16 states can be set. If the data length of the value is in Bit, only 2 states can be
	set.
