Support Questions / Re: How are you displaying your text?

« on: May 05, 2016, 09:28:03 PM »

Thanks for the suggestion Archie. Can I stack them, and only make them visible when the bit is true or false? How can i relabel the displayed value such as N or NW?

« on: May 05, 2016, 08:24:11 PM »

I have a weather vane, and I would like to display a N, NW, W, SW, S, SE, E, NE. In the PLC I have a series of Greater Than and Less Than's writing to C10 through C17 depending on the value. I really like the Blue Panel meter but it only accepts numerical format. What is everyone using to display text on a true bit?

Support Questions / Re: How can i setup an Alarm Page

« on: April 21, 2016, 06:27:08 PM »

I am using a Click PLC for this, and it doesn't have an Alarm instruction like AB. My thought was to use a Set, Reset bit, I am wondering if you have a better idea now. I attached a screen shot to better explain how I was going to do it in the PLC.

I would like to setup an alarm page that would display the Alarm in Red if unacknowledged, and Amber if acknowledged. Has anyone done this? If so how?

I have ran into this same problem, all you have to do is copy the entire AHMI folder, then paste it and rename it. I have bought all the addons so I built a blank one with addons ready and go from there. Hope this helps.

Support Questions / Re: Basic Trend Chart Sampling time

« on: April 02, 2016, 09:31:23 AM »

Thanks Archie!!! Being as I want to capture 24 hours of data once every 5 minutes I assume i would set the max points for 288 in the trend properties. Is that correct?

Is there a way to adjust the sampling rate and display time on the Basic trend chart? It appears to display about 5 minutes worth of data, sampling every couple seconds. I would like to sample every 5 minutes and display 24 hours of data.

Thanks for everyones help!!! I did try several of the methods, I was not able to get Godra's method to work due to an error that populated. I assume because I am running 3.99D. Any thoughts?

I would figure this should be super easy, however I can't locate a line tool. Can someone point me in the right direction?
