Couple of my many HMI's built

andrew_pj:
Looks nice and simple!
Still have room for improvement though.

Darrell:
I always like to keep things simple . I'm very new to visual basic and keep learning and finding new ways to improve my HMI's every day thanks in part to Archie and this forum .

Darrell:
updated the pictures above , HMI's have gotten a little better over time with the help of Archie and this forum,  The Fans will rotate when running , did this by using an animated GIF in a picture box and layered  the same picture over the top using the animated picture box which stops the animation and make disappear with a PLC Address bit  when the fan is running , voila a spinning fan.

I'll let you in on an undocumented feature of AdvancedHMI....

- Right click AdvancedHMIControls\WaterPump.vb and select Copy
- Right click then AdvancedHMIControls\PurchasedControls Folder and select Paste
- You may get an error box, if so just click OK
- Click the newly pasted WaterPump.vb slowly 2 times so it will go to allow you to rename
- Change the name to Fan.vb
- Edit the new Fan.vb file and change the first 2 line of code to this (the first line may already be right):

Public Class Fan
    Inherits MfgControl.AdvancedHMI.Controls.Fan

- Build the Solution
- You will now have an animating fan in your ToolBox
