Numeric Display - Operation Options

The following operation options can be added to a numeric display. Select and set up the options in the Numeric Display property sheet.

Operation

Description
Scaling Gain/Offset The value of the monitored variable will be scaled by the following formula before it is displayed.
DisplayedValue = MonitoredValue * Gain + Offset
Select and set this option in the Advanced page.
Note: The Gain and Offset are 32-bit floating point numbers. They have, at most, 6 significant digits. Rounding and truncation errors may occur.
Max./Min. Set the Display Min/Max corresponding to the Data Min/Max.
If this option is selected, the value of the monitored variable will be scaled to fit the display range before displayed. And the entered value will be scaled to fit the data range before it is output.
Range Display You can specify a low limit and a high limit for the numeric display. The limits can be constants or variables. At runtime, when the value of the monitored variable is below the low limit, the numeric display will show the value with the text color and the BG color set for the low limit. When the value of the monitored variable is above the high limit, the numeric display will show the value with the text color and the BG color set for the high limit.
Visibility Control You can show and hide the numeric display by the specified bit or the current user level. Select and set this option in the Visibility page.
