6.1.4 Word lamp

Introduction

[Word lamp] could display value of specified PLC or HMI word address, the display state of the component changes as the value of the read address changes.

Description

1) Address

Read address: read the value from specified address.

2) States settings

States count: The default Word state displays the number of States 1, which could be selected by the drop-down list to display the state of object, range: 1-128.

State value: Users could set different values to correspond to different states, the setting window as below figure shows.

For example

By default, when value of read address is 0, object displays state 0.

If change settings as below figure shows

When value of read address is 11, object displays state 1.

State of value out of range: When the value of read address exceeds the maximum state number, there is no corresponding state to be displayed. So there are two modes of processing for it: "Hide" and "Show state"

Hide: When the value of the read address exceeds the set range value, the word state display object will be blank.

Show state: When the value of the read address exceeds the set range value, the object will display the "Specified state". For example, set the maximum is state 7 (value is 6), when the read address of the value is greater than 6, it will display state 2 text and pictures.

3) Transform state

Quick Read: Directly read the value of the connected device without going through the HMI cache

Auto transforms: Object switch states automatically

Trigger: Control bit to enable switch automatically

Auto return: return to the initial state after reaching the final state;

Time of transform: it is used for setting the frequency in automatic switching state. Unit: 100ms.

Dynamic interval: set the frequency of automatic switching state and read it from the address. Unit: 100ms. If the value in address is 10, then the frequency of automatic switching state is 10*100ms = 1s.

Manual

Set state: Set a constant value for the word address.

State increase: Increase state for each time the switch is triggered.

State decrease: Decrease state for each time the switch is triggered.

Last state: The state will not increase/decrease when reaches limits.
