Figure 43: Dashboard item configuration
The following settings are available for each item:
- Item caption: a string of up to 13 characters describing the item (note: some web services
have limitations on what characters can be used - the software will provide you with a
warning if incorrect characters are used)
- Data source: select the data source from available sources (digital inputs or outputs,
PoExtBus outputs, Sensors, digital counters, PoIL shared slot data) with respective index of
the item from the second list
- Display type: there are different display type options available based on the data source
type. The digital signals can be represented by ON/OFF value with optional On/Off or
On/Off/Toggle buttons. The (analog) value signals can be represented by numeric value
display with optional bar graph. The numeric value can be mad editable - double-click on the
displayed value shows an editor box, that allows the user to enter a new value, which is sent
back to device (for use with PoIL shared data values).
- Data unit: the PoKeys device comes preconfigured with a variety of data units. If the desired
unit is missing from the list, up to 20 custom units can be configured.
- Min/max value: use the minimum and maximum value boxes to set the values for the bar
graph boundaries.
- Access rights: select users from the list that should have access to the selected item.
Custom unit editing
PoKeys device contains 20 custom units that allow the user to setup additional units if needed. Since
the units are displayed on a dashboard in a web browser, HTML code for the unit can be entered,
allowing different text formatting.
