Developing a hierarchy of displays

A hierarchy of displays is a series of graphic displays that provide progressivelymore detail as users move through them. Design your display hierarchy to meet

the needs of the various users, including managers, supervisors, and operators.

Well-organized graphic displays present information clearly and consistently and

guide users through the system. Before designing individual graphic displays,

plan an overall display hierarchy and plan how users will navigate through the

hierarchy

Message

Follow these steps to set up local messages:

1. In the Local Messages editor, set up the messages and their trigger values.

2. In the Graphics editor, create local message display objects in the graphic displays

in which you want the messages to appear at run time. For each local message

display, assign a tag or expression to the Value connection and specify the file of

messages to display.

Use local messages to give the operator ongoing information about the status of devices and

processes. For example, you might use local messages to describe the status of a device

whose condition cannot be shown graphically with complete accuracy

Alarms

Follow these steps to set up alarms:

1. In the Alarm Setup editor, set up alarm triggers (the tags or expressions to monitor), define

the alarm messages and their trigger values, and specify the graphic display to open whenalarms occur (if any). Also use this editor to specify trigger types, Acknowledge all values,

the maximum alarm log file size, the hold time, and optional connections.

2. In the Startup editor, ensure that the Alarms box is checked (it is checked by default).

3. If desired, in the Graphics editor modify the default [ALARM] display, or create your own

graphic display to use for alarms. For example, if you wont be using audible alarm signals,

edit the default display to remove the silence alarms button.

For information about graphic displays,4. Test alarms on the run-time system.

Data Logging

3. In the Graphics editor, create a graphic display containing the trend

graphic object, and set up how the object looks, which tag values to

display, the start time, and the time span for the data. Also specify the

name of the data log model to use.

Follow these steps to set up data

logging:

1. In the Data Log Models editor, setup a data log model that specifies

how many log values to store, the

conditions that trigger data

logging, where to log data, and

which tags to monitor.

2. In the Startup editor, turn on data

logging by selecting the Data

logging check box.Also use this

editor to specify the data log

model to use at run time.

Recipes

A recipe is a set of numeric and string data values (ingredients) that can

be downloaded to their associated tags at the data source. Each

ingredient has a pre-set data value assigned to it. The set of data values

for all the ingredients in a recipe is called a data set. The set of numeric

and string tags assigned to the ingredients in the recipe is called a tag set.The ingredients, data sets, and tag sets are stored together in a recipe file

Recipes

For example, a bakery making whole wheat bread could use the same

ingredients and tag sets, but depending on the type of crust desired, could use

different data sets to specify different baking temperatures. As another example,

you might want to have multiple production lines baking the same bread. In this

case, the data set for all the production lines would be the same, but the tags

receiving the recipe information would be different for each production line. Units

allow you to combine different tag sets and data sets for the same set of

ingredients
