Description

The SevenSegmentDisplay.project sample project including a visualization of four seven segment displays shows the value of an integer. Buttons are used to increment and decrement the value of the integer variable. The seven segment display is implemented modularly and can be easily customized for individual requirements.

A single digit of the seven segment display is represented by the SevenSegmentDisplay visualization component and the SevenSegmentDriver driver function block. The Display function block is instantiated in the PLC_PRG program and referenced by the MainVisu visualization.

The following values can be displayed:

  • Numbers from 0 to 9

  • Letters from a to f

  • Decimal point
