Large Faceplate/Tabular Wizards

Usage

Large Faceplate/Tabular Data Screen wizards are three-dimensional representations of device faceplates that can be used to display data from the device. These three- dimensional wizards include extensive logic that provides an accurate reproduction of the actual display and keys of the device. Large Faceplate wizards are typically placed in overlay windows.

By clicking on the display of a Large Faceplate wizard, you can display a tabular data screen portion of the wizard. Tabular Data Screen wizards contain organized, comprehensive, tabular layouts of device parameters including additional configuration and remote control features. To make the Tabular Data Screen portion of the wizard display by default, select the Tabular Datasheet checkbox in the configuration window.

You can move and resize Tabular Data Screen wizards as desired.

Special Considerations

The button controls on the 3-D representation emulate the controls of the actual device. This may be useful for reducing software training time for personnel already familiar with device operation.

Each Tabular Data Screen wizard contains buttons for activating the help file, trend window, setup window (if applicable) Event Logger, Waveform Capture, and for closing the window.

Depending on the device, there may be multiple file-tabs beneath the tabular data section. These switch among various pages relating to data and setpoints.
