The system offers the following options:
● Check box cleared
This is the default setting.
When you create/update a screen, all PCS 7 block icons are arranged automatically,
starting in the top left corner.
Screens in which a rack structure (for example, ET 200 central rack) is displayed are
exceptions to this. In this case, the block icons for objects are arranged in the order of their
slots.
After you update/create the diagnostics screens, move the block icons to meet your
requirements. Block icons that have been moved remain in their position after the screen
is updated. New block icons are added in the top left corner of the screen.
Note that adding new block icons may cause icons to overlap.
Block icons to be deleted are removed from the screen. Their position in the screen remains
unoccupied.
● Check box selected
The block icons for the selected diagnostic area are repositioned automatically.
All block icons are repositioned.
