3.3 Defining Screen Partitions
Note
Before starting the actual configuration, the settings for partitioning the screen
on the operating unit must be defined. These settings are then valid for the
entire project. In addition, communication areas must be specified which are
required for messages, for example.
Defining the display partitions
These settings relate to the representation, size and position of the message
areas for event and alarm messages.
The system setting contains the fixed window. The fixed window is an area
which appears in each screen. This can be used, for example, to label the
system or position the date/time fields.
