ION 7500 / ION 7600 User’s Guide

Changing Default Display Frameworks

 

 

The order in which data displays depends on the numbering of the Display modules. Therefore, the data linked to Display module 1 is displayed on the first front panel screen and so on. Scrolling between the display screens is done with the up/down arrow buttons on the front of the meter.

To view all Display, Display Options, and Scroll modules at once:

Launch Designer and continue with the instructions which follow below your particular meter type.

For the ION 8000 Series and ION 7500 / ION 7600 meters:

6.Double-click on the Advanced Setup folder in the main meter configuration screen. The label above the folder reads “Frameworks.”

7.Double-click on the folder labeled “Display Framework.”

For the ION 7300 Series:

1.Double-click the Meter Display Setup folder in the main meter configuration screen. The label below the folder reads “Display Modules.”

All Display modules and a shortcut to the Display Options module appear.

Changing Default Display Frameworks

The factory-configured Display framework uses many of the Display modules available in the meter. Only a few of the default screens have room for extra data. To make a significant modification to the existing display framework, you either have to create new display modules and configure them, or change the links and settings of the modules in the existing Display framework (or both).

Four common customizations are discussed in the following sections:

removing a display screen

adding a new display screen

replacing the parameters in an existing display screen

creating custom trend bar graphs (ION 7500 and ION 7600 only)

Making a Framework Backup

Before you reconfigure or delete a framework, you should make a copy. This ensures that you can restore the framework without having to reinitialize the factory configuration.

To make a framework copy:

1.Select the desired framework.

2.Choose Copy to Framework from the Edit menu.

Give the framework a unique name. Select a different location in which to save the framework, if you so desire.

3.Click Ok.
