PQM | Device type = MLPQM |
Trip1 | Device type = EMVTC |
Trip2 | Device type = EMVTC |
Trip3 | Device type = EMVTC |
Trip4 | Device type = EMVTC |
Click the “Generate Screens” button and let PowerBuilder create the device screens. When PowerBuilder is finished your project contains three windows:
MainMenu.cim – contains all the small faceplates for the project
