want Use picture of data point file. If yes, the background picture will be taken
from the selected definition file to be included in the current plant diagram. When
assigning a new definition file, the plant diagram will lose all previsouly displayed
data points, text and links and, depending on the selection made, the previous
background picture also.
After closing the dialog, the changes will be activated. If some other definition file has
been assigned, the program attempts to assign the data points of devices existing in
the directory of the plant diagram. Depending on the situation, the program asks for
more information or notifies if data points cannot be assigned to any of the devices.
Data points that cannot be assigned will not appear in the plant diagram.
For more information, refer to the following chapters:
• Creating a new plant diagram

3.3 Popcard
3.3.1 Introduction to the "Popcard" application
This application provides for the visualization of all data points transmitted by each
device, and of their values.
Each device type has a standard Popcard; structure and contents of the operating
pages are predefined
User-defined Popcards can be created for each device and each node. Data points
from all subordinate devices can be added to a Popcard that is assigned to a node.
Standard and user-defined Popcards can be copied to devices of the same type or to
higher level nodes.
A user-defined Popcard has the following properties:
• It can consist of several user-defined pages
• Each page can be subdivided into several user-defined sections
• The Popcard, the pages and sections can be assigned freely selectable data points
and separators
It is always possible to switch from the standard to the user-defined Popcard, and vice
versa.
• Every selected page is automatically updated. Updating is visualized.
The operating opages can be printed and exported as an ASCII file.
For more information, refer to the following chapter:
• Processes in the "Popcard" application.
