Displaying of variable values

Simple output of variable values:

For example, you can configure a strict formatting specification for a Rectangle element in the Text property and the variable whose value is to be displayed in the element in the Text variable property.

Display of structured variable values (structure, array, and function block):

You use the Table element and specify an array variable in its configuration in the Data array property whose values are to be displayed in the table. One-dimensional arrays can also be displayed in a Histogram.

Display of values by image switching.

Example: A specific screen is displayed depending on the error message that occurs. You do this by configuring an Image element with a variable for the Bitmap ID variable property.

Display a variable value as a bar or with a pointer on a scale:

You specify a variable in the Value property of the Bar Display element or Meter element to display its value as a bar on a horizontal or circular scale.

Display of alarms:

The alarms configured in the alarm management of the application can be made visible by means of the Alarm Table and Alarm Banner elements in the user interface.
