Property Description of Numeric Display Element

Fast Refresh

If this option is selected, the element can be displayed immediately when switching the screen. Please note that this function is designed to provide fast value refresh speed for the element which performs communication frequently. Therefore, only 4 elements (including display element and input element) can be fast refreshed on one screen. If the user use this function on too many elements, it may affect the normal speed of HMI operation. So, we recommend the user not to activate this function if not necessary. The user can set the Fast Refresh Rate by clicking Screen > Screen Properties command. There are three levels of the Fast Refresh Rate and they are High, Medium and Low.

Property Description of Character Display Element

The user can use this element to read the value of the specific address, convert them to text or character and display on the screen. The read value must be in ASCII format or the user cannot see the display text or character. (The max. string length is 28words.)

 

Read Address

 

The address can be internal memory or the controller address. (Please refer to Table

 

 

 

3.2.2 Property Description of General Buttons.)

 

Text Size

 

The user can set the text size and text color provided by HMI to determine the text

 

Text Color

 

display on the element. HMI provides 8~64 kinds of default text font for the user to

 

 

 

use.

 

Border Color

Style

 

(Please refer to Table 3.8.2 Property Description of Numeric Display Element.)

 

 

 

 

 

String Length

 

The range is with 1 ~ 28 words.

 

 

 

Set the read address as Internal Memory 0, i.e. $0, set the string length to 6, and

 

 

 

create three Numeric Entry elements. Then, set the data format of these three

 

 

 

Numeric Entry elements as hexadecimal and enter the value as follows:

 

 

 

$0 = 4241 (Hex)

 

 

 

$1 = 4443 (Hex)

 

 

 

$2 = 4645 (Hex)

Then, the above screen will display.

Please note that character display element reads the Byte value, and the data length of the internal memory $ address is Word, which is composed of two Bytes. Therefore, one Word can represent two Bytes. However, as the high byte and low byte of the value that read by the character display element will be exchanged, when reading the Internal Memory $0 (=4241 (Hex)), the real display character will become “AB” and vise versa. Please refer to the following table.
