Symbol parts

A symbol part is a library part that displays the value received from a tag as a symbol using a lamp.

 

A wide variety of instrumentation symbols that are frequently used on the monitoring screen, such as valves and pumps, are available.

 

Symbol parts do not require tag binding definitions, and will work simply by setting a tag path to properties prepared in the format of input tag (_TagIn), input tag 2 (_TagIn2), etc. Symbol parts also have a switch function for ON/OFF operation, so in addition to being used simply as a lamp, they can also be used as a lamp and switch, and if no tag is assigned, they can also be used simply as a static image.

 

There are two types of symbol parts:

 

Symbol Part 1

 

parts_symbol1_001

Symbol Part 1 is a part that displays the value received from the tag as a lamp using the symbol's "fill color."

 

 

Symbol Part 2

 

parts_symbol2_001

Symbol Part 2 is a part that displays the value received from the tag as a lamp using the symbol's "border color."

Unlike Symbol Part 1, which uses a fill color, this part is designed to be displayed on a screen with a dark background color.
