A library with standard plant diagrams is assigned to each device type. For all
supported plant diagrams, that library contains:
• The graphic display
• The data points to be displayed
• The text to be displayed
The application identifies the selected plant type, automatically assigns the standard
plant diagram and displays the current values.
A user-defined plant diagram can be created for each device:
• By adopting and adjusting the standard plant diagram
• By creating a new plant diagram
A user-defined plant diagram is created as follows:
• For the graphic display, take a picture from the library. That picture can be adapted
with the help of external graphics software, such as Micrografx Picture Publisher™.
Also, pictures produced with external graphics software can be adopted in 256-color
Bitmap format
• For adding data points and links, the application has an Editor integrated
All user-defined plant diagrams are stored in a separate library. They can also be
created without having a connection to the plant (offline).
Switching from standard to user-defined plant diagram, and vice versa, can take place
at any time.
The plant diagrams can be printed.
