12 Setting the display mode in normal operation
The settings defined in chapter 'Setting the display settings during initialization' are defined in the
engineering tool as initialization parameters and sent to the display once during the initialization of
PROFINET. These settings can not be changed during normal operation.
The displays also allow to change these parameters during normal operation. Up to four 'generic
property value modules' can be added.
A property number is be assigned to each of these modules. The display then shows the information
sent via this module via PROFINET on the desired parameter.
Setting the basic brightness (luminosity of the LEDs)
The basic brightness of the display is controlled with the following 'global properties':
0 = Standard luminosity (default)
1 = Out of range luminosity
0 = off
:
8 = middle luminosity (default)
:
15 = maximum luminosity
'out of range'-luminosity
0 = off
:
8 = middle luminosity (default)
:
15 = maximum luminosity
0 = Display is dark
all others: display lights (default)
Example: To darken the display at any time via the PLC the module 'generic property value (Integer8)'
is added. The property-group 'global properties' and the property number '4' are set in the engineering
tool in the initialization parameters of this module.
During operation, a number is transferred to this module during cyclic data transmission. If this number
is set to '0', the display will be dark. During darkness, the decimal point of the least significant decade
flashes. As soon as a value other than '0' is transmitted, the display switches its display on.

Setting of the display modes
With these setting options, the representation of the number which is transmitted cyclically via
PROFINET is influenced. To control a specific property, a 'generic property value module' is added.
In the parameters of this module, in the Property-group the property 'Property of display field' is
selected and in the field 'Property-number the desired property is entered in the 'Property number'
field.
