HMI display raster layout and text font selection
The raster in the page changes from symbol presentation to text presentation when
a text object is selected and vice versa.
The text can be presented in two different font sizes:
• UniCode characters (6 x 12 pixels)
• UniCode characters (13 x 14 pixels)
The total size of the presented white area (page) represents the visible part of the
local HMI display without header and foot-line.
The visible display for a single line diagram is organized in a raster of 13 x 8
(columns x rows). Each symbol presented by 24 x 24 pixels included by the drag
and drop method must be dropped in a raster box. The apparatus object name can
be placed in all four directions around the symbol. The name is part of the
apparatus object.
Handling text
The raster switches when text is selected in a raster of 45 x 15 (columns x rows).
One raster box is the placeholder for one character. A text element must be placed
in the position of the raster. The signal name can changed either by double click or
via the property window. Unit and scaling of the signal can only be changed via the
property window.
Select and toggle Show Texts using the IED Fonts to get a view how it will look
like later on the real HMI display.
Doing Link to draw lines
The line width has to fit to the line width used for the symbols. The standard size is
2. Choose the line width in a selection box placed in the upper area above the page.
A line that is not connected to a symbol may be done in any line width in the range
1 - 5. But it needs to be simple connection points to be drawn.
For the procedure to draw lines when the apparatus symbols are placed, see
Figure
61.
1. Place the apparatus or transformer symbols by drag and drop in a raster box.
2. Place the connections symbols by drag and drop in a raster box.
3. Center the mouse pointer on the center of a connection point; visible in two
triangles if not connetions are made, otherwise two circles at the endpoints of a
line, to draw a line.
4. Click to start and move the mouse pointer to the destination connection point.
Center once again the mouse pointer and click to drop the line.
5. Draw all line elements that are necessary.
