Editors
Overview, Continued
Note: On most Embeded Servers you cannot download both the Data Editor
and Graphic Editor because of memory restrictions. If you want both, you
must remove an equivalent amount of plug-ins.
Graphic Objects
All the graphic objects that are provided with the Graphic Editor are capable of
communicating with the PLC from which the Graphic Editor applet was
downloaded. There is no additional “wiring” of the graphic objects with
“communication objects”. All the graphic objects are designed as stand-alone,
meaning that there are no connections required between the objects, and each is
capable of operating independently.
Viewing a
Graphic Display
After the Graphic Editor applet has been uploaded to a Web browser, you will
typically be interested in either viewing a graphic display (for monitoring/controlling
the PLC application) or creating/modifying a graphic display.
For a user who just wants to view and interact with existing graphic displays (e.g.,
an operator), they can select the desired graphic displays from the list that is
available as soon as the applet is presented. They will need to enter a password
only if they want to write data to the PLC.
Create and
Modify Graphic
Displays
If you want to create and modify graphic displays, click the “Edit...” button and you
are presented with the customary editing capabilities for a graphic editor. That is,
select objects from a palette, drop them onto a canvas, move and size them with a
mouse, and set their properties. You can immediately test the modified graphic
display with run-time data from the PLC by exiting editor mode (click the 'Done'
button). When satisfied with your creation, the graphic display can be saved to the
PLC for re-use by clicking the “Save...” button, if you have entered the correct
password.
