7... HYPERNET™ I CON BASED PROGRAMMING

Icon Assortment

A complete reference listing of all of the icons available within HyperWare is included in the Master Icon Listing in Appendix A. Details on Configuration, applications, and proper usage are described.

	Global Icon
	One special icon that is included in every Program Net is called the Global
	icon. Within the Global icon’s Configuration dialog are options for various
	global Program Net options. These options include Program Net Name,
	memory utilization mode, clock resolution, and modem paramteres. The
Figure 7... -	operation of this icon should be reviewed in the Master Icon Reference in
12: Global	Appendix A before attempting to construct a Program Net.

	Making Connections Between Icons
	Lines are used within a Program Net to indicate the flow of signals between
	icons. (See Figure 7... -1)
	Signal Types
	Three types of signals can be communicated between icons in a
	Program Net. The three signal types are differentiated by color and
	their different functions follow:
	DATA (RED)
	Numerical values are transmitted from icon to icon via Data type
	signal connections. HyperNet allows Data connections to be
	made ONLY between Data terminals on icons to preclude
	mismatching of signal types.
		SIGNALS COMMUNICATED VIA	EXAMPLE ICONS WITH DATA TYPE
		DATA TYPE CONNECTIONS	TERMINALS
		TEMPERATURE	OUTPUTS FROM THERMOCOUPLE ICONS
		VOLTAGE	OUTPUTS FROM VOLTAGE ICONS
		PRESSURE	MATH (INPUTS AND OUTPUTS)
		FLOW	INPUTS TO COMPARATORS
			OUTPUTS FROM COUNTERS
		Table 7... -2: Example Data type signals and Icons
	LOGIC (GREEN)
	True / False values are transmitted from icon to icon via Logic
	type signal connections. Logic signals have only two states. As
	with the other signal types, HyperNet only allows Logic signals to
	be connected to Logic type terminals on icons.
